Global Responsibility Lead

Now Brewing – global responsibility lead! #tobeapartner

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.

As a lead on the Community & Social Impact team within Global Communications & Corporate Affairs, you will lead key programs that engage partners (employees) and deliver meaningful community impact. You will collaborate with partners across the company to develop and execute enterprise-wide programs that inspire and equip partners to volunteer and give in their coffeehouses and communities. You will build and maintain strategic relationships with nonprofits, industry leaders, and key stakeholders both inside and outside Starbucks to drive innovation, strengthen program impact and build support for key priorities. 

As aglobal responsibility lead, you will…

• Lead program strategy and execution: Develop, deliver and continuously improve large-scale, complex, and highly visible programs that engage partners in their communities. Oversee program strategies, budgets, partnerships, and all aspects of execution.

• Cultivate collaborative relationships: Build and nurture strategic partnerships with key cross-functional partners and external nonprofit and industry organizations to bring stakeholders together, influence without direct authority and build support for shared priorities.

• Use insights to inform innovation: Listen to partners and analyze engagement trends to inform future program strategies. Translate insights into recommendations that improve the partner experience and increase program impact.

• Communicate with stakeholders: Develop and share timely program updates, resources, communication tools, and reports with stakeholders across the organization, including retail partners and mid-level, regional and senior leaders. Create clear, practical tools that help partners take action to deepen the engagement of each coffeehouse in its local community.
