About the role
Sales Manager - Industry Lead CPG - Uber Ads FR
About the role
Leading at Uber means setting direction in motion, not waiting for perfect conditions. As the Sales Manager for CPG Ads , you will build high-performing teams in ambiguous environments, make hard calls under pressure, and carry the weight of decisions that matter. This role is about navigating the messy reality of a hyper-growth advertising business where you’ll turn complexity into clarity while building long-term partnerships in a fast-changing environment.
This role leads our high-stakes France CPG Advertising Sales and Account Management team, focused on scaling revenue for key clients. You will be responsible for the Food and Beverage portfolio, where you will define the strategy to grow one of the fastest-moving business lines within Uber Ads, a division that connects advertisers to our highly engaged user base across Delivery and Mobility apps globally.
Sales at Uber means navigating intense internal and external complexity to build enduring partnerships, often without a ready-made script for success. We are looking for an accountable leader with deep commercial coaching experience and the resilience to drive consistent revenue growth from a maturing book of business. If you thrive in setting clarity amid deep ambiguity and developing a diverse team of tenacious collaborators, this is where you will make your mark.
About the Team
At Uber, we’ve spent the last four years building and scaling a fast-growing Uber Ads division focused on unlocking the next era of advertising across our global platforms. With a foundation in place, Uber Ads now empowers merchants, brands, and advertisers to connect with a highly engaged user base across our Mobility and Delivery apps in 32 markets.
The France CPG Ads business is a key driver of this success, helping leading brands in CPG & Retail to reach and convert customers across the Uber ecosystem. As we enter our next phase of growth, we're looking for a dynamic team leader to take our CPG Food and Beverage advertising efforts to new heights.

- Cultivate resilient, long-term partnerships with C-Suite leaders at major CPG & Retail advertisers, ensuring high retention and continuously identifying incremental spend opportunities in a competitive digital landscape.
- Articulate a clear and compelling go-to-market message, leveraging Market & Platform Expertise to position Uber Ads against competitors and secure organizational alignment on product advocacy.
