At Catawiki, every day brings the extraordinary! Whether it’s Daniel Ricciardo’s Formula 1 Car, a Woolly Mammoth’s Skeleton, Lady Gaga's Jumpsuit or Usain Bolt’s running shoe, we encounter exceptional objects every day.
We’re a one-of-a-kind marketplace for buying and selling special objects. Each week, more than 100,000 unique items are auctioned, all carefully curated by our passionate in-house experts.
Having sold over 25 million unique objects, our mission is to become the world’s most popular destination for special objects. As a growing, diverse and sustainable scale-up, we proudly live by three core values. If these values resonate with you, we’d love to explore how you can join us.
Japan is one of Catawiki’s fastest-growing markets. As Senior Key Business Developer, you will accelerate that growth by identifying, winning and onboarding high-potential professional sellers in Japan. The role starts with a focus on watches, branded jewellery and fashion.
You will help Japanese sellers reach buyers across Europe by showing them how to prepare their inventory, list successfully and ship across borders. The role includes onboarding and guiding sellers through API integrations, while setting clear expectations about the sales potential of their inventory and realistic price positioning on Catawiki.
You’ll work remotely from Japan, collaborating closely with our international Sales team and the category teams in Watches, Fashion and Jewellery to strengthen Catawiki’s reputation as a leading platform for special objects.
This is primarily a business development role. You will own opportunities from prospecting through onboarding and successful activation, then work with account management colleagues to ensure a smooth handover.
