Buying e-bikes is at the core of our business, and you will be responsible for unlocking new growth opportunities with retailers, leasing providers, fleets, and more. We are looking for a Regional Business Development Manager to join the B2B team and scale our retailer network across the Stuttgart region. Based in the field 4 days of your working week; your mission is central to Upway’s growth: securing high quality e-bikes for the purpose of refurbishment, in addition to encouraging your clients to use our trade-in solution as a daily sales tool. Each day you will meet with independent bike shops owners and regional retail chain management, to win new retail partners.
