* Represent the merchant internally: Surface meaningful merchant insights each quarter to inform product improvements, GTM strategy, and internal initiatives
* Elevate the team: Share best practices, provide feedback on decks and negotiation strategy, and support the development of Partner Managers

## We’re excited about you because you have…
