Drive ongoing seller performance, conducting regular account reviews, joint business planning, and campaign participation strategies to boost account sales.

Monitor category metrics, inventory depth, and competitive pricing across CEE and Greece to identify catalog gaps and commercial opportunities.

Work cross-functionally with local and central marketing, category management, and customer experience teams to align strategic goals and elevate seller KPIs.

Expected Qualifications: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Management, Business Administration, Engineering, or a related discipline.

Proven track record in business development, key account management, or commercial category management within e-commerce or marketplace platforms.

Deep understanding of retail dynamics, commercial trends, and seller landscapes across Fashion, Beauty, or FMCG in Greece and the broader CEE region.

Experienced negotiator capable of closing commercial agreements with multi-brand retailers, brand distributors, and high-volume sellers.
