Role summary
Spot & Tango, a pet health & wellness brand, seeks a Strategy Manager to identify and evaluate growth opportunities, own consumer and competitor research, and manage strategic projects. This role involves building models, analyzing P&Ls, and developing data-driven recommendations for senior leadership. The ideal candidate is highly analytical, comfortable with ambiguity, and skilled in quantitative analysis, market research, and project management. Experience in strategy consulting, e-commerce, or the consumer goods/food/retail industries is a plus. This is a hybrid position based in Midtown Manhattan, requiring in-office presence on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.
Who We Are
Spot & Tango is a pet health & wellness brand on a mission to make mealtime better for dogs, and life simpler for the people who love them. Our recipes are developed by leading animal nutritionists, and are made with only real, human-grade ingredients... and nothing artificial. Through UnKibble™ and our original fresh-frozen line, we’re rethinking what feeding your dog well can look like, one bowl at a time. Since our founding in 2018, we have served over 200 million meals to happy pets across the US and Canada.
We’re a team of builders, problem solvers and dog people, united by the belief that dogs deserve better. We’re looking for people who want to do the best work of their career, dig into challenges with smart people, and help shape a brand that’s redefining an entire category. This is a chance to join a high-growth e-commerce company and have an outsized impact in a fast-paced, ambitious environment. Plus, you get to think about dogs all day.
Who You Are
You’ll work closely with senior leadership and the broader strategy team to identify and evaluate potential growth opportunities. Every day will be different, and could include building out an opportunity sizing model or deep-diving into a country’s import regulations. You’ll also own our consumer and competitor research roadmap, so our biggest bets are grounded in what customers actually want. As projects move to execution, you’ll work cross-functionally to align on deliverables and ensure we stay on track. This role offers direct exposure to senior leadership and cross-functional influence across Marketing, Product, Finance and Operations. You’re analytical, business-minded, and naturally curious; just as eager to dig into a P&L as you are to pick up the phone and speak directly with customers. You’re a strong quant: comfortable building models from scratch, working through retail math (e.g., pricing, margin, velocity), and pressure-testing assumptions without needing a template. You balance structured analysis with strong intuition, and know how to translate detailed analysis into a clear recommendation for stakeholders. The ideal candidate has a bias towards action, thrives in environments where priorities can shift quickly, and takes pride in turning ambiguous problems into concrete, measurable outcomes.
