WHY WE WILL LOVE YOU
You care about making a positive impact in the world. You understand greatness requires thinking differently. An inclusive and accepting work environment is important to you.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING DAY TO DAY

As a Product Recovery Associate, contributing to the recovery and sustainability work in the store, you will:
- Contribute to minimizing all internal damages or other costs related to IKEA products.
- Take necessary action on products to give them a second chance, such as repackaging and assembly.
- Present IKEA products in As-Is using a strong commercial expression, selling these products with pride and setting relevant prices that are attractive to customers yet still generate the best results for the store.
- Support the quality work in the store in order to constantly improve customers' quality perception of IKEA products.
- Always consider the sustainability impact when deciding when and how to recover products.
- Contribute to an environment where IKEA culture is a strong and living reality that embraces the diversity of co-workers and customers.
