We’re here to help make tech reliable, affordable, and better than new. We're a global marketplace for refurbished devices, helping lower our collective environmental impact by providing trustworthy, affordable tech with 92% less carbon emissions than new.
Yep, you read that right. Turns out refurbished tech is way better for the planet than new. In fact, With every device purchased on Back Market, our positive impact on the planet grows. From our Customer Care representatives to our software engineer, every individual at Back Market cuts the planet — and consumers — a break. Our mission is simple: to do more with what we already have.
Are you ready to join us?
Back Market is the leading global marketplace dedicated to refurbished tech. We give electronic devices a second life by connecting customers with professional refurbishers, making more sustainable technology accessible to everyone.
Trade-in enables customers to sell their used devices, including smartphones, tablets, gaming consoles and more to professional refurbishers through Back Market. It is an important part of our circularity strategy: it helps customers recover value from their devices while giving Sellers access to the supply they need to grow their refurbished business.
Trade-in is currently operated across several markets, including 4 EU countries, the UK and the US, with further country and category expansion planned. Operations cover many different operational areas including logistics, fraud, CRM, customer care, payments, catalog and more.
Trade-in Operations is a transversal scope covering the entire Trade-in journey, including payments, customer care, CRM, catalog, pricing, seller operations, logistics, fraud & more.
Our mission is to make sure that customers and sellers experience a smooth, reliable and efficient Trade-in service. This means understanding how the service works end to end, getting hands-on with operational issues, managing incidents, finding solutions and continuously improving the way we work.
You will work close to the day-to-day operations, executing processes and understanding where problems really occur. The objective is then to use data, automation, AI and process improvement to make these operations simpler, faster and more scalable.
1. Ensure smooth operations from day one
You will take ownership of operational processes and checks, making sure that important tasks are completed accurately and on time. This may include:
Maintaining the Trade-in Catalog and product matching
Monitoring pricing and identifying inconsistencies
Supporting Seller limit adjustments and Seller reactivation processes
Updating customer and agent-facing content
Supporting transactional CRM communications
Monitoring fraud-related processes
Investigating operational issues and coordinating incident resolution
These activities are essential to understanding the service and building the expertise needed to improve it.
2. Improve operations and create measurable impact
You will identify opportunities to improve, simplify and automate processes:
Analyse data to identify recurring issues and root causes
Build or improve reports, dashboards, alerts and monitoring
Simplify manual workflows and reduce unnecessary steps
Prototype automation using available tools, AI and workflow platforms
Improve incident detection and reduce resolution time
Track the impact of your improvements on incident rates, manual effort, customer satisfaction and seller experiences
Document processes and create reliable playbooks for the teams
Contribute to the evaluation and improvement of our AI chatbot for customer support
The goal is to turn recurring operational work into measurable improvements, not simply to execute tasks more efficiently.
3. Enable Trade-in to scale
Trade-in plans to open additional countries and categories while continuing to improve its performance. We cannot rely on increasing operational resources in proportion to the business.
You will help prepare the service for this growth by:
Standardising processes and making them easier to replicate
Designing scalable workflows and controls
Automating repetitive checks and actions
Making operational knowledge easier to share across markets
Helping ensure that new launches do not create an equivalent increase in manual work
Success in this role means helping Trade-in handle more volume, countries and categories with fewer incidents, faster resolution times, better customer and seller experiences, and less manual effort.
You are hands-on, curious and solutions-oriented
You enjoy investigating problems and finding ways to make things work better
You are comfortable starting with operational execution to understand how things work and using it as a foundation for improvement
You are comfortable with spreadsheets and data extraction (SQL) and analysis
You are curious about processes, automation, AI and tools such as Braze (CRM), Intercom (Customer Care), Zapier and Workato (automation), Tableau and Omni (data visualization)
You communicate clearly in English, both in writing and verbally
You want to see the concrete impact of your work on a real, 360 business scope
Starting date: January 2027
Duration: Ideally for 12 months (24months to be discussed).
Location: Bordeaux, France
Contract: You must already be enrolled in a work-study program in a French school (contrat d'alternance / d'apprentissage)
