Now Brewing ? product manager, Food! #tobeapartner
From the beginning, Starbucks set out to be a different kind of company. One that not only celebrated coffee and the rich tradition, but that also brought a feeling of connection. We are known for developing extraordinary leaders who share this passion and are guided by their service to others…
As a product manager on the Food team, you will . . .
Sit (or stand) at the heart of our rapidly growing $5B+ food business. An essential part of the Starbucks product experience, food completes the occasion for our customers. We are looking for someone to help us deliver unparalleled food experiences that our partners are proud to serve, and that our customers crave. One could call it a dream job. This role focuses on our bakery products.
We have an org chart, but our team strives together as one. Here?s what our team does and where you may play a part:
Drive forward our ambitious food programs
Food plays a central role in elevating our brand ? we are standing up a new program to freshly bake croissants in our stores. We aim to serve the absolute best coffeehouse croissants in our stores.
This is a highly complex, highly cross-functional initiative requiring a combination of day-to-day management as well as strategic thinking to see around corners and drive smart decision-making. While our focus is food, bake fresh spans most corners of the enterprise, contributing to a robust toolkit.
We are also reimagining our food case ? near term and long term ? to deliver a stunning visual presentation.
Craft our food
We love food on the Food team, and we have the privilege of crafting new food experiences for our customers ? new platforms, new flavors, new textures. This forms the core of what we do.
We partner closely with our product development team to imagine and commercialize new food products that align with our food strategy.
We test and learn about innovative food concepts ? refining products for customers and de-risking investments for our business.
Deeply understand our customers
To craft food that our customers are most likely to enjoy, we engage in research that helps us understand how we can best make our customers? lives better through food.
This may include foundational research to understand underserved food occasions that Starbucks can fill, or refining opportunity areas such as all-day eating/snacking
Think strategically about our business
Crafting the best food for our customers requires combining our understanding of customers with business sense to create the focus necessary to execute well.
We define the most promising opportunities to enhance our customers? lives through food experiences, and thus grow our business.
Engage our partners
Food experiences don?t come to life without our store partners, and we aim to make our partners evermore proud to serve our food.
We partner with our operations team to develop and implement initiatives that educate and excite our store partners about our food.
We have fun and eat a lot of food!
Repeat: we have fun and eat a lot of food!
