Description

Following the news of OnBuy's second consecutive year as the 11th FASTEST GROWING tech company in the whole of the UK, we are continuing to grow the team too. This time a Product Manager. 

Who are OnBuy?

OnBuy are an online marketplace who are on a mission of being the best choice for every customer, everywhere. We have also recently been named as Europe’s number one fastest-growing eCommerce company by the Financial Times. An achievement we are very proud of, but we don't let that go to our head. We are all laser focused on our mission and understand the huge joint effort ahead of us needed to succeed.

Working at OnBuy:

We are a team of driven and motivated people who thrive when working at pace. To succeed at OnBuy you need to take charge and fully own your responsibilities, rolling your sleeves up when needed to 'get it done'.

At OnBuy, you're not just a number or another cog in a machine. We are creating something really special and you have the opportunity to affect meaningful change, have your voice heard. We are a close team, who have the opportunity to learn and grow as OnBuy evolves. We work in a flexible way, meaning we can prioritise our health and relationships, but when we are working, we graft.
