Sales and marketing services connecting consumer brands to retailers and shoppers
Advantage Solutions operates a large sales and marketing services business spanning retail, e-commerce, and grocery channels. The company is in the midst of significant operational modernization: actively adopting Workday and Workday Prism signals a shift toward unified workforce and financial planning infrastructure. With 935 roles posted in the last 30 days across a 10,000+ headcount base, and a junior-heavy hiring mix (876 junior vs. 102 senior), the organization is scaling field execution capacity while simultaneously building internal analytics and planning capabilities (new sales metrics and strategic planning initiatives) — a pattern typical of maturing sales services operations moving from manual to data-driven deployment.
Notable leadership hires: Account Director, Director Operations, Director Sales, Sales Director, Client Director
