Head of Buying

The Head of Buying of NADUVI – one of Europe’s fastest-growing e-commerce companies – will be responsible for establishing new partnerships and optimizing existing supplier relations for its Home & Living platform. From defining the commercial go-to-market strategy to flawless execution, the Head of Buying will be instrumental to NADUVI’s future success.  

About NADUVI

NADUVI is an online Home & Living platform that helps interior enthusiasts discover inspiring furniture and decorative products in and around their homes, always at a discount. Its offerings include about fifty thousand different items, available to consumers in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany. NADUVI has partnered with over three hundred carefully selected premium brands, distributors, and manufacturers – a mix of international powerhouses and local Dutch heroes – including Zuiver, Dutchbone, Rivièra Maison, Goossens, and Riverdale.

NADUVI’s innovative platform offers its partners a direct channel towards consumers. It enables them to put the spotlights on off-price merchandise and give high-quality interior products a second chance to be sold. An excellent solution for all parties involved. It lets consumers enjoy beautiful products against high discounts and provides manufacturers with a way to tackle redundant stock, reducing write-offs and waste. 

“We want to continue our growth: offer consumers an even better experience, grow our team, and partner with more premium interior brands. Our ultimate goal? Be the number one in Europe.” – Itai Gross, Founder & CEO

Over the past years, NADUVI’s performance has been astounding. The company completed a funding round, won numerous awards (e.g., ‘Best Starter’ and ‘Webshop of the Year’), went international, and saw the volume of orders grow considerably. The company is rapidly progressing from start-up to scale-up to solid e-commerce business. With a growing team of over a hundred ambitious young talents and a seasoned management team, NADUVI is well-positioned to deliver on its promise of becoming Europe’s most significant Home & Living outlet and launching exciting new propositions alongside it. 

Vacancy: Head of Buying

The Head of Buying will identify, assess, and establish partnerships with brands, distributors, and manufacturers. They will act as the first point-of-contact for all partnership-related topics and be the face of NADUVI to its commercial partners. A role that requires a strong network in Home & Living, which the Head of Buying will maintain, grow, and leverage to benefit the scale-up.

The Head of Buying will be leading NADUVI’s Buying Team. Together with the team, they will drive growth by managing partnerships and expanding and optimizing the product offering. In leading the team, the Head of Buying will position themselves as a player and coach. On the one hand, they will work on a strategic level, e.g., defining the approach to hit sales targets. On the other hand, they will closely collaborate with the team, guide them in their daily activities, and implement processes and best practices to enable high performance.

Collaboration is a key part of the role. The Head of Buying will work closely with their cross-departmental peers (e.g., in Operations and Marketing) to continuously bring value to NADUVI’s partners in new ways, for example, through jointly developed go-to-market partnership strategies. Additionally, they will need to be comfortable in commercial negotiations and eager to make good deals. Finally, the Head of Buying will rely on data to create insights and inform their actions.

Joining NADUVI now means becoming part of one of Europe’s fastest-growing e-tailers. The Head of Buying will get the opportunity to contribute to the organization’s development and have a direct impact on the future success of the scale-up.
