Manager, Strategy - Global Brand

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. We are forming a new Strategic Initiatives team within Global Brand to drive high-impact, cross-functional efforts shaping the future of our brand, business, and customer experience.

Your work includes identifying key issues, framing problems, leading analyses, and delivering actionable recommendations to senior leadership.
