We are looking for imaginative, analytical, and adaptable leaders to join our home team. You’ll find a dynamic atmosphere where learning and growth opportunities are abundant, and hard work and results are rewarded. We’re a diverse community of innovators, risk-takers, and trailblazers who know that our unique perspectives make us stronger, smarter, and well-positioned for success.

Successful candidates will join Wayfair as Senior Managers and will be placed into key functions across the business dependent on a combination of interest, skills and experience, and growth potential. 

Talent Team:
