YOUR MISSION

As part of Decathlon's Circular Business & Sustainability department, we aim to create the best rental service for sporting gear on the market, transforming how people access and enjoy sport. We're moving from ownership to usership, committed to offering top-tier experiences at affordable prices with maximum flexibility, from a few hours to multiple years.

As our Platform & Operations Manager, you'll be a doer-builder ensuring our rental platform runs smoothly, processes scale efficiently, and customers are delighted. You'll take our different Rental offers from MVP to a fully scalable platform, thriving in operational challenges, streamlining workflows, and piloting tools and automations.

This role is perfect for someone with an entrepreneurial mindset, strong problem-solving skills, and the ability to design scalable processes in a fast-moving environment.

  • Drive Circular Innovation by supporting new service models (maintenance, second life, subscription, repair) and ensuring a seamless operational integration.
  • Watch over the full life cycle of our rental assets — from first ride to final return — making sure they live their best, most active life.
  • Ensure our bikes and products flow seamlessly from warehouse to customer by tracking stock, managing returns and refurbishments, and partnering with delivery teams to provide the right product, at the right place, at the right time.
  • Measure & Improve through data analysis, dashboards, experimentation, and customer feedbacks.
