Business Lead, C2B
SwappieOm tjänsten
Own Swappie’s €100M+ consumer trade-in business.
To fuel Swappie's profitable growth and advance our mission of making refurbished electronics mainstream, we are looking for a
Business Lead, C2B to join us in Helsinki. You will run the channel where we buy iPhones and other devices directly from consumers
across Europe, accountable for growing its volume, margin, and category reach.
Tens of millions of working electronic devices sit forgotten in drawers across the continent. C2B (consumer-to-business) is how we
get them out of drawers, into our refurbishment facilities, and back into circulation. Purchasing directly from consumers is a
strategic cornerstone for Swappie and already accounts for a third of our business. Yet, much of its potential remains untapped:
giving you a proven operational foundation and significant room to continue driving double-digit growth, alongside the runway to
optimize existing flows, test new channels, and build trade-in partnerships in both current and new markets.
In this role, you will take full ownership of the C2B growth agenda. You will have the mandate and autonomy to capture commercial
opportunities, test bold growth hypotheses, and scale our circular supply model. Reporting directly to our Head of Pricing,
Planning & Analytics, you will jointly set the growth ambition, determine how to reach it, and lead cross-functional execution
across marketing, product, operations, and pricing — calling the shots on what we scale and what we retire.
If you are looking for true commercial ownership, a key business line with significant room to grow, and a mission that keeps
devices in circulation, you will thrive here.
WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY DO AND OWN:
- Commercial ownership: Drive the C2B growth agenda, commercial strategy, and performance targets. You are accountable for the
C2B numbers: purchase volumes, net revenue contribution, margins, and customer satisfaction (NPS).
- Cross-functional collaboration: Facilitate the C2B mission team across Marketing, Supply Product, Operations, and Pricing.
While each functional lead manages their team's specific execution, you ensure all initiatives connect into a unified growth
plan and that decisions move forward smoothly.
- Test and scale growth initiatives: Lead new projects from initial idea through to proven business impact. Whether exploring a
new marketing channel, evaluating international expansion, developing trade-in partnerships, or refining our offer to sellers,
you decide what to test, evaluate the results, and scale what works.
- Bring customer and partner signals into business decisions: Work directly with partners and participate in customer research,
so that what sellers and partners tell us shows up in our pricing, product and marketing decisions.
- Remove growth constraints: Spot operational, commercial, or customer journey friction points early. When challenges arise, you
collaborate with team members to find practical solutions and keep priorities on track.
WHAT YOU'LL BRING TO THE TEAM
This is a Lead individual contributor role designed for an ambitious, commercially minded professional ready to take broad
ownership of a key business area. Because you will work across multiple teams without direct line management, we look for someone
who builds strong working relationships, communicates clearly, and enjoys turning strategy into concrete action.
- Commercial and growth track record: Demonstrated experience owning and improving commercial, growth, or volume metrics (for
example in a startup, scaleup, expansion team, consulting, or your own company).
- Entrepreneurial mindset: Experience building, launching, or scaling projects or initiatives from the ground up, with a
practical and solution-oriented approach.
- Collaborative leadership: A natural ability to bring diverse teams together (such as Product, Marketing, and Operations), work
through trade-offs, and help stakeholders reach clear decisions without needing line authority.
- Comfort with numbers: Strong numerical intuition and comfort working with data. You do not need to be a data specialist (you
have an analytics team to support), but you understand conversion funnels, unit economics, and how to use data to guide
commercial choices.
- Customer focus: Genuine curiosity about customer behavior and an interest in engaging directly with users to understand their
needs, and turn frontline insights into commercial strategy.
WHAT WILL GIVE YOU AN EDGE (OR WHAT YOU’LL LEARN TO MASTER WITH US):
WHY JOIN SWAPPIE?
- Significant ownership: Take ownership of a major, established business line with high visibility and direct support from senior
leadership.
- A mission that matters: Every device we purchase, refurbish, and resell directly contributes to reducing electronic waste and
advancing the circular economy.
- Autonomy with strong foundations: Enjoy the freedom to test new ideas and make real commercial decisions, backed by the
infrastructure, data, and resources of an established European scaleup.
- Belong and be yourself: Our strength as a company comes from the diverse group of people we're proud to employ. Whoever you
are, you're welcome at Swappie.
