Direct Buyer (Consumer Electronics) - Freelancer (m/w/x) Remote About Grover Founded in 2015, Grover enables consumers and businesses across Europe to subscribe to tech devices and comprehensive technology solutions — from individual smartphones, laptops, and wearables to full corporate device setups.

A pioneer of the circular economy, Grover refurbishes and recirculates devices to help eliminate e‑waste. Please note: this is a freelance (contract) engagement, not a permanent position. We'll align on contract duration, weekly capacity, and your day rate during the process.

As a freelance Direct Buyer, you'll sit at the heart of one of the fastest‑moving parts of our business, sourcing the devices that power Grover's subscription catalogue across Europe. You'll work with our Head of Procurement and closely with Category Management.

We're scaling into a full procurement function, so you'll get real ownership and visible impact from day one: hands‑on work across new and B‑stock sourcing, OEM relationships and supplier negotiations.

What you will contribute • One of our fastest‑growing categories, mainly smart home, TV and audio, with exposure across the wider portfolio • Sourcing stock at the right price: your first 90 days are about finding available inventory while hitting a 15–20% discount vs RRP • The procurement strategy behind your categories, plus access to trade fairs and industry events as we bring new products on board What you bring • 1-4 years’ experience in direct buying/purchasing (within e‑commerce or tech companies is preferred) • Knowledge of the consumer electronics B‑stock supplier industry in Poland/Eastern Europe is a significant advantage • Strong negotiation and communication skills: you’re comfortable talking directly with suppliers • An analytical mindset, confident working with data and spreadsheets • Knowledge of consumer electronics categories (mobile, audio, smart home, TV) is a plus • Organised and detail‑oriented: you can manage multiple workstreams at once • A registered freelance setup that allows you to work with clients in Germany • Fluent English (C1+) and native Lithuanian language skills The Grover Way – How We Drive Success • Own It: we take ownership seriously and define what success looks like.

We drive shared ownership and don’t wait – we drive. We keep one another accountable and take responsibility when issues arise. • Challenge, Decide, and Commit: we engage in proactive support, active listening, and healthy conflict to reach the best outcomes.

We value diverse perspectives and, once a decision is made, we commit to it fully. • Empower and Grow: we enable, trust, and coach one another toward high performance, always thinking and acting like owners.

We seek growth, apply feedback, and support the development of our peers. • Respect, Transparency, and Clarity: we strive for clear, respectful, and open communication with no surprises. We simplify complex information so everyone knows the what, why, and how. We can’t wait to e‑meet you!

This position is strictly on a B2B / Independent Contractor basis. We do not offer standard Lithuanian employment contracts (Darbo sutartis), and we do not withhold income taxes or pay social security/health insurance contributions on your behalf.
