Back Market for Business (B2B) was launched 2 years ago as a platform dedicated to providing companies with refurbished IT hardware (smartphones, laptops, and tablets) for their employees.
We have established strategic partnerships with key players like Insurance, Telco, and Leasing companies to offer an innovative solution through API integration, enabling our partners to source high-quality refurbished devices. Back Market for Business operates internationally across Europe and the United States.

You ready ?
YOUR MISSION (IF YOU ACCEPT IT): 🥇
Onboard and manage Pro customer accounts through both inbound and outbound channels (email, phone calls), primarily serving SMEs (PMEs) and mid-sized companies (ETIs).
Support clients in executing their supply acquisition strategy, covering smartphones, tablets, and laptops mostly, with varying levels of complexity: from straightforward purchases to sourcing assistance (in collaboration with the Pro Supply team), price negotiation, and value-added service offerings (payment terms, enrollment, trade-in programs, extended warranties).
Drive the transition from a transactional to a relationship-driven approach: moving beyond deal-closing to building long-term account management practices, as the team progressively shifts its commercial model in that direction.
