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. We’ve also been recognised as a Top DACH Employer by Kununu for three consecutive years.
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 Sales Manager, you will play a key role in expanding and scaling refurbed’s Sports category, with a strong focus on acquiring and launching new sellers while also growing selected existing partnerships.
You will act as a commercial driver for the category, combining new business development, seller onboarding, and portfolio growth. This role is well suited for someone who enjoys identifying opportunities, opening doors with new partners, and turning commercial potential into tangible results.
While the primary focus is on new seller acquisition, you will also manage and develop a defined portfolio of existing partners across Sports subcategories, ensuring long-term growth and performance.
WHO YOU ARE:
- You hold a university degree and bring 3+ years of experience in sales, account management, or business development, ideally within marketplaces, e-commerce, or retail

- You have a strong commercial instinct and a track record of identifying opportunities, negotiating partnerships, and driving revenue growth
- You are confident engaging with external stakeholders, able to influence decisions, and build trust-based relationships
- You combine a hands-on mindset with structured thinking and enjoy working toward clear commercial goals
- You are data-aware and comfortable using insights to prioritize actions and guide decisions
- You are resilient, proactive, and motivated by building something new
- You have an interest in Sports and are curious about developing a fast-growing category
WHAT YOU'LL DO:
- Drive new seller acquisition in the Sports category by identifying, pitching, and onboarding high-potential partners and brands
- Own the end-to-end onboarding process for new sellers, from first contact to successful go-live
- Manage and grow a selected portfolio of existing sellers, unlocking additional opportunities across products, countries, and subcategories
- Build strong, long-term relationships with sellers, acting as a trusted commercial partner while representing refurbed’s strategic interests
- Collaborate closely with internal teams (Operations, Supply, Marketing, Tech) to ensure smooth setup and ongoing performance
- Analyze seller and category performance to identify growth levers and improvement opportunities
- Contribute to category expansion initiatives and support strategic projects related to Sports and new business development
