We are looking for a Business Lead in Motors, who will report directly to the COO. Wallapop is currently the largest advertising platform for second-hand cars from private sellers, and the second largest overall in Spain. We want to continue the high growth from the past couple of years by further penetrating the dealer market and creating synergies within our portfolio of offerings. We also want to explore how we can innovate and increase the value of our services for sellers.

  • Identify, quantify & prioritise new opportunities to improve and innovate our value proposition towards buyers and sellers and drive revenue growth
  • Create realistic business cases to drive make/partner/buy decisions
  • Manage the full P&L of our Motors business
Requirements
  • Knowledge of and passion for the automobile industry, in classifieds or marketplace context
  • Bachelor or Master's degree in business or engineering
  • Relevant work experience in business management and/or strategic consulting in the field of classifieds and/or e-commerce
  • Proven experience in developing and delivering business strategy

  • Customer-centric mindset in everything you do
  • Proven track record of delivering results against ambitious P&L targets
  • Commercial and creative mindset, balancing pragmatic solutions with long-term goals

  • Motivated to take full ownership and include relevant partners from start to end
  • Fluent in Spanish and English
What Would Be A Plus
  • Business development experience in SMB solutions
  • Experience with agile working environment in a start- or scale-up company
