About the team
The Shipping Group owns everything that moves at Back Market – from the moment a seller configures their listings to the moment a customer's order is delivered. We're organized across two squads and one strategic program:
Shipping Core squad – BackShip (managed labels, carrier network, billing, warranty), transit time infrastructure, carrier optimization, and collection point UX
Delivery Experience (DXP) squad – Customer-facing delivery promise (PDP, Cart, Checkout), post-dispatch tracking, and delivery notifications
BFF program – Back Market's logistic infrastructure, which integrates our fulfillment, trade-in, and B2B operations.
Shipping Core and DXP are deeply interdependent: Shipping Core builds the rails, DXP surfaces them to customers. Our products directly impact €3.5B+ in annual GMV and every single order placed on the platform.
About the scope
We're looking for a Senior Product Manager to own BackShip – Back Market's managed shipping solution for sellers, and one of the highest-leverage infrastructure bets in the company.
BackShip is how Back Market takes control of the physical flow of goods: instead of relying on sellers to choose their own carriers, Back Market negotiates the rates, generates the labels, and manages the carrier relationship end-to-end. It's both a seller-facing product and the core infrastructure layer that will power Back Market's own fulfillment operations (BFF) at scale.
Currently, BackShip sees a minority of our sellers using the service. We aim to significantly grow this adoption rate in the coming years, which is expected to generate substantial additional revenue.
You'll own six product domains:
Label Generation — Generate shipment labels for every order flow via our integrations with Teliae and Intersoft; distribute labels to sellers, customers, and agents; manage Tradelines configuration
Delivery Services — Pickup requests, Carrier-side collection point shipping method, QR code returns (e.g. UPS US), and future delivery modes as we expand the carrier network
BackShip Billing — Receive and process carrier invoices; bill logistics costs back to sellers; own logistic cost data feeding CCBM and Backbox
BackShip Warranty — For every shipment, decide whether BM applies carrier insurance or BM's own warranty; maintain warranty configuration across carriers and markets
Carrier Optimization — Smart routing (greenfield initiative — not yet existing); this is yours to define and build
BackShip Support — Own the seller support experience for BackShip-related issues, in coordination with Seller Success
