ACCOUNT MANAGER for Retailers / Brands - remote

We Work Remotely
42 is an end-to-end analytics platform for retailers and brands! 

Retailers and fashion brands have a wealth of data available, but it's locked away in legacy systems and siloed third parties. Figuring out what products are selling in their stores or online, or what’s running out of stock is a daily struggle – many users ending spending hours in Excel.
 
Whether it's CEOs looking at their global store performance, store managers understanding best product placements, or merchandisers planning the next season, our platform enables retailers and brands to get instant visibility in their business.
 
The majority of retailers don't have the in-house expertise to spin up data infrastructure. Instead, they piece together reports in excel on a daily basis. This works fine for small eCommerce brands, but not for retailers in the $50M – $5B range. That's where we come in.
