About the role
About Marketplace
Marketplace is a brand-new online venture for Tesco, crafted to give our customers the opportunity to use our website to shop for a wide range of third-party products in addition to the groceries they already know and love. Our initial focus will be on pet food, health and beauty products and alcohol, and as with other online marketplaces, sellers will fulfil orders directly. Join us on this exciting new journey, and you will be a key member of a hardworking, collaborative team that's delivering on our promise to serve our customers, communities and the planet a little better every day.

As a creative pioneer and inspirational manager, you'll be an innovative business developer. The key to the Marketplace team's success will be its ability to work with many other teams in the wider Tesco family, including Technology, Digital Product and Online Operations. No two days will be the same as you become an expert in your area of the Marketplace model. We're building Tesco's future, and it's a future shaped by you.

You will be responsible for

  • Work with sellers to manage onboarding onto the platform and product induction
  • Manage a growing team of operations executives
  • Support with technical expertise on different onboarding methods and the full end to end onboarding journey
  • Manage the day to day operation, problem solving, escalating issues as required and seeking opportunities to improve our operations
  • Drive problem solving including identifying the key issues and developing effective solutions to manage or mitigate risks
  • Develop operations to improve our ways of working and create a smoother and more efficient onboarding flow

  • You will need
  • Experience onboarding suppliers
  • Experience of working in an online retail environment, ideally a marketplace
  • The ability to quickly grasp and utilise multiple product systems
  • Project management skills
  • Experience of managing a team
  • Technical skills in MS Excel
  • Collaboration and communication skills as you'll be working alongside stakeholders, suppliers and colleagues with varying technical experience

  • Don't meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that women and people of colour are less likely to apply for jobs unless they feel they meet every requirement highlighted in the job posting. At Tesco, we are committed to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace for everyone. So if you're passionate about this role, but your skills, experience or qualifications don't match the job description exactly, we would encourage you to apply anyway. You might just be the right person for this role in our team!
