About the opportunity

eBay Motors is a multi-billion dollar, global portfolio comprising the Parts & Accessories, Business & Industrial, Vehicles, and WHI (a B2B Parts & Accessories marketplace in US) businesses. These categories are not only among the largest on eBay and core to eBay’s strategic future, but also are actively innovating in the market and at eBay!

We are looking to hire an expert analyst, who will support the eBay UK’s Parts & Accessories leadership team and play an instrumental role in accelerating growth for P&A’s UK business. The role will utilise data and business case development to develop strategic insights, while ensuring operational excellence in planning, analytics, reporting, and teamwork across a broad cross-functional team. Our key partners include product, marketing, analytics, finance, operations, monetization, and business development, among many others.

The role demands a dual mentality: both that of a strategic leader—who has a deep understanding of the dynamics of two-sided marketplaces, can break down tough problems into clear frameworks, operate in ambiguity, and possesses strong data intuition—as well as someone who can move quickly and decisively as an embedded operator not afraid to get their hands dirty.

  • Serve as an analytics partner to the UK Parts & Accessories leadership team

  • Apply strategic, operational, and analytical standard methodologies to extract and present actionable insights on what’s driving business performance

  • Identify and execute against opportunities across the Parts & Accessories landscape that require strategic deep dives

  • Partner with Category Managers, partners, and sellers to drive key initiatives

What you will bring: 

  • Strategic problem solver with strong analytical/data science skills to dive into data and identity root causes

  • High degree of ownership and commitment to results

  • Self-motivated to find opportunities and challenges in the business

  • Communicates clearly, effectively, and proactively with strong listening, written, and verbal communication skills

  • Ambition to grow professionally and willingness to work hard, learn/adapt, and provide feedback both upward and to peer teams

Requirements

  • 2+ years of related experience, ideally at a top-tier management consulting firm, investment bank, or in a strategy & planning role at a major corporation

  • Excellent analytical skills including familiarity with SQL 

  • Interest and/or experience in Motors a plus, but not required
