Do you want to use your passion and talent to make consumption more sustainable?

Since 2017, we saved over 100,000,000 kg of CO2 by selling refurbished equipment, while 3.5 million trees have been planted, mainly with our partner, the NGO Eden Reforestation.

We are passionate about sustainability and we are the fastest growing marketplace for refurbished products in Europe.

We work in cross-functional squads & believe in a product-led growth strategy, where each squad owns a part of the user experience/problem. With a high focus on end-customer happiness and retention we are looking for a UX lead that can help us to bring the biggest impact for our business and our customers.

This role will lead our amazing UX team, guiding them in creating outstanding user experiences across various domains and throughout the entire user journey. If you join our team, you will be responsible for both leading the team and helping them elevate their UX skills to deliver products with exceptional user experience.We are looking for 2 leads, one to join our Acquisition and Retention Tribe (B2C focused) and one for our Supply & Customer Satisfaction Tribe (B2B and CRM focus). Depending on the area, as a lead you would be managing a team of UX designers, a copywriter and UX engineer. #TalentForFuture
