• Leasing Company Relations: Develop strong networks with leasing companies to acquire returned bikes.
• Manufacturer Collaboration: Work closely with leading e-bike manufacturers to secure high-quality products and strengthen industry ties.
• Process Optimization: Streamline procurement processes to maximize efficiency and ensure consistent product quality.
• Negotiations: Secure the most favorable purchasing conditions for Upway through effective and strategic negotiations.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience: 2–5 years in sales, purchasing, or account management.
• Relationship-Building: Exceptional interpersonal skills with the ability to foster long-term partnerships across all levels — from CEOs of international bicycle manufacturers to local bike shop owners.
• Negotiation: Proven track record of securing favorable terms through strong negotiation skills.
• Travel Readiness: High willingness and enthusiasm to travel frequently across Germany to strengthen partner relationships within the bicycle industry.
• Communication: Outstanding written and verbal communication skills in both German and English.
