• Results and Accountability: Define business objectives and measure progress in achieving results; demonstrate strong commitment towards goals and driving complex projects focused on reducing customer contacts, improving cost, quality, customer experience, and delivering bottom line savings

Required Experience

About the Customer Care team

Walmart’s Customer Care team is committed to identifying and visualizing customer defects and friction, and to elevating the voice of the customer to drive meaningful improvements. This role will underpin efforts to transform customers’ Walmart shopping experience by making customer data and insights easy to access and understand, and by identifying and measuring customer experience improvement opportunities.

We are looking for a customer- and data-obsessed individual who thrives in ambiguity, has innate curiosity to explore and learn, and has a passion for data. The work you lead will touch millions of customers across our online and stores experiences.

We’re virtual

Working virtually this year has helped us make quicker decisions, remove location barriers across our global team, be more flexible in our personal lives and spend less time commuting.  Today, we are reimagining the tech workplace of the future by making a permanent transition to virtual work for most of our team. Of course, being together in person is an important part of our culture and shared success. We’ll collaborate in person at a regular cadence and with purpose.
