Marketplace Risk’s Post

I didn’t imagine 3 weeks before my wedding, I’d be laid off. But it happened. 21 days from saying “I do” I found myself among the 4% of Criteo employees laid off and my 4+ years of employment ended. This wasn’t on my bingo card, to say the least! Nevertheless, I’m proud of my growth during this adventure. At Criteo, I was promoted twice, went from a seller to hiring and leading a team of sellers, and explored extended learning opportunities at the company, ultimately discovering my passion for coaching. Upon reflection, I can distill my experience into three major takeaways. 1️⃣ Say YES to growth opportunities.  When I was given the chance to lead a team and gain people managing experience, I jumped at it. I discovered that I was good at managing personalities and extracting people’s best. 2️⃣ Be yourself – always.  You can teach skills, but you can’t teach personality. I found that showcasing my brand externally with clients led to even better results. 3️⃣ Be a financial consultant. A manager taught me this, and I use it in my sales mantra today: If you are truthful with your clients, even if it's telling them not to buy, you might lose dollars in the short run but will gain a long-term partnership. My motto is: “Leave it better than you found it,” and I feel I did that at Criteo. I’m proud to have routinely exceeded my quarterly goals, developed and closed business with Fortune 500 companies, and hired and developed a team that continually surpasses their targets. I’m seeking positions in Sales, Account Management, or Customer success in Media Sales, AdTech, or MarTech in Los Angeles. I’m open to IC, Player Coach, and Manager roles. Please share and let me know if anyone is hiring. #OPENTOWORK

Hi Linkedin colleagues, It has now been 7 months since my layoff from Meta and I’m still in the market for new roles. I’m going to be transparent, this is an anxious time for me as severance has basically run out and the situation has become crucial. I am looking for hybrid, remote, on-site, full time, and contract roles that match my profile in the Bay Area of California. I want to eliminate any cautions in the process these are assumptions that aren’t true: 1.) I will only work at FAANNG companies and not smaller companies: I’ve worked at companies with less than 200 employees on multiple occasions.  2.) Over Qualifications: The market is tough so myself and others are looking for roles that have different titles than what we’ve worked on before 3.) Gaps in my resume: I’ve been laid off twice so that creates time in between roles to search for another opportunity  4.) Only can manage payment related roles: My skills are transferable just ask! I have approximately 100+ referrals across multiple payment facilitators, merchants, issuers, acquirers, and processors that can speak to working with me. Types of roles I’ve interviewed for: Director, Account Management/Product Operations Payments Strategist  Strategic Financial Partnerships Manager Product Compliance Operations Manager Payments Consultant  Product Manager, Payments Program Manager Project Manager Payments Operations Analyst  Manufacturing Program Manager Again I am open for roles in the Payments/Financial Services industry for Leadership, Account Management, Strategy, Partnerships, and Compliance roles. Please feel free to message me regarding openings and referrals and I won’t hesitate to share my experiences and skill sets. #ProgramManagement #ProjectManagement #Partnerships #AccountManagement #ProductManagement #Payments #FinancialServices #diversityandinclusion #Strategy #Operations #Compliance #DataIntegrity #metalayoffs

According to recent data, there are 52,000 active marketers in U.S.-based B2B startups, with around 450-600 new hires each month! Leadership roles in marketing (~3,350) and sales (~4,200) are on the rise, especially compared to 2019. What’s even cooler? Product marketing and leadership roles are growing, while areas like Content & Growth Marketing haven’t kept pace (MKT1 Newsletter). As I’m on the lookout for my next Product Marketing Manager role, I’d love to connect with anyone hiring or looking to chat about new opportunities.

Angi is seeking an experienced, results-driven Product Manager to join our Pro Experience team. This person will improve the tools our service professionals use on a daily basis in a marketplace that generates nearly $1bn annually. They will have the opportunity to build personalized experiences that make sure pros are set up to get jobs done well, and to get the most return out of our marketplace. The ideal candidate exhibits the following: - Experienced problem solver: you have 2+ years of product management experience, including leading a team of engineers in an Agile environment. If not direct Product Management experience, you have experience solving problems for customers and leading a team to build solutions.  - Data-fluent: you have a hands-on approach finding, pulling and using data to solve problems, identify opportunities, and are capable of inventing and using new metrics to learn and make decisions. You are excited to dive deep into the data using analytical tools. - Deeply curious: you operate with a sense of urgency and always look for new ways to understand our customers and create value on their behalf. - Biased for action: you make good decisions with incomplete data and are constantly optimizing for learning. You find creative ways around blockers and always have an option for what’s next and never an excuse for why you can’t proceed. - Know the product type: Strong bias for experience building mobile apps or hybrid (mobile+web) apps - especially in a B2B setting or marketplace setting.    - A bar raiser: you inspire others to bring their ‘A’ game and are constantly looking for opportunities for improvement. You don’t accept “because that is the way we’ve always done it.” - An owner: you can seamlessly straddle thinking about both the product and the business and are equally comfortable talking about funnel metrics and P+L's. You never say “that is not my job.” - A compelling story-teller: you use both qualitative and quantitative data to influence key stakeholders, inspire your team, and you can tailor your message to your audience. - Collaborative partner: you are able to build strong relationships and lead via influence. You are a servant leader to your engineering and design partners, and you seamlessly juggle priorities of multiple stakeholders.
