Account Executive Europe

About

At Shipup, our mission is to create a seamless, proactive, and branded post-purchase experience for online retailers. 🛍🛒

If you’ve ever shopped online, you’ve probably already had your patience tested by an order that never seems to come. For online retailers, a bad post-purchase experience is a costly nightmare: it hurts customer satisfaction, online reputation, and repeat purchase rate while inflating the volume of complaints to customer service.

We’re a SaaS company that tracks online retailers’ orders in real-time to make online shopping less stressful. Customers are happier, complain less, and buy again more.

Shipup is looking for passionate people to help deliver unforgettable experiences that inspire lifelong loyalty.

We work with more than 300 brands in Europe and North America, including some very successful digital native brands (Cheerz, Blissim, Withings, Feed, Respire, Aime, Na-Kd, Ssense, Ysé, A.P.C. …) while others are larger, more traditional accounts (Leclerc, Carrefour, Go Sport, Yves Rocher, Zadig & Voltaire, Petit Bateau, etc…).

In 2022: Shipup announced that Global Blue had acquired a majority stake in the company while staying an independent structure.

Today it’s a 65+ people company that envisions a world where brands keep their promises along the entire customer journey.
