Job description

Founded in 2017, refurbed is Europe’s fastest-growing marketplace for refurbished products, active in 12 European countries and having surpassed €2Bn in GMV — all while being profitable. With beautiful headquarters in Vienna, we operate as a remote-first company, and our 250+ employees enjoy up to two months of workation per year.

Our mission is to make sustainable consumption the easy choice by enabling customers to buy products up to 40% cheaper while significantly reducing CO₂ emissions.

We believe flexibility works best when paired with ownership. While we offer a remote-first setup built on trust and autonomy, we look for people who are self-driven, proactive, and motivated to turn ideas into impact in a high-accountability environment.

As a Senior Business Developer for the category Home & Garden you will be responsible for identifying, acquiring, and closing high-impact partnerships with brands and professional sellers, shaping the assortment strategy and growth.

WHO YOU ARE

You bring 5+ years of experience in Sales, Business Development, or Partnerships, ideally within marketplace, retail, or e-commerce environments working with brands in the Household Appliances or Garden space
You speak German and English fluently; an additional European language (e.g. Italian) is a strong plus
You have a proven track record of closing complex, enterprise-level deals, managing long sales cycles end-to-end
You are passionate about working with people and can communicate, influence, and persuade stakeholders at all levels, including senior leadership and C-level counterparts, backed by strong commercial acumen
You are resilient and persistent, learning from setbacks without losing momentum

Nice to have

Existing network within the Home & Garden industry
Prior experience working with marketplace and/or retail business models

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Identify, evaluate, and prioritize strategic sellers and brands within the Home & Garden category, building a strong and differentiated pipeline
Analyse market trends, demand signals, and assortment gaps to shape the category’s acquisition and growth strategy

Act as a problem solver for prospective sellers, collaborating with internal teams to address commercial, operational, and technical requirements
Guide new partners through refurbed’s marketplace processes to ensure smooth onboarding and successful go-live, working closely with cross-functional teams

Represent refurbed at industry fairs, events, and conferences, building visibility and long-term relationships within the Home & Garden ecosystem
