About the team:
Walmart is redefining the ways we discover and shop by blending content, culture, and commerce. The Social Commerce team helps power this transformation by building cutting-edge experiences on-site, enabling new sources for rich content, leveraging creator and community-led insight, and scaling trend intelligence across the enterprise. Alongside our Item Experience and Content Strategy teammates, we aim to make Walmart the most insightful, engaging, and effortless place to shop.

• Develop business cases and roadmaps to pitch ideas, influence priority, and secure buy-in from leadership.
• Turn ambiguous challenges into actionable playbooks, long-term strategy, and automation.

What you'll bring:

• Action-Oriented Leadership: Ability to thrive in ambiguity, applying structure and robust frameworks to accelerate end-to-end results.
• Strategic Problem-Solving: Strong analytical mindset to develop long-term, sustainable solutions to complex operations issues in real-time.
• Data-centricity: Proven ability to leverage data insights to inform strategic decisions, identify business opportunities, and validate processes.
• Domain Expertise: Deep understanding of the social platform landscape, trend-detection tools, and modern social commerce innovations.
• Executive Storytelling: Exceptional storytelling capabilities, with the ability to construct and deliver audience-specific, enterprise-level narratives.
• Collaborative Ownership: Proactive leadership style, demonstrating the ability to manage complex initiatives independently while unifying cross-functional teams.
