Product Manager

Description

What we do:

Nellis Auction creates value for buyers and sellers by developing and operating simple liquidation solutions through online auctions.

Everyday retailers need to liquidate thousands of products that have been returned, damaged, or sitting on shelves for too long. Nellis Auction receives these products, efficiently processes and accurately describes them to be listed on our auction platform. All items are sold to bidders on nellisauction.com providing value to buyers in the form of new deals everyday for items they can purchase at a discount.

Nellis Auction strives to continually improve the reverse logistics and liquidation industry by designing efficient processes that both reduce costs and generate higher recovery rates for sellers while finding end users for each product to eliminate as much waste as possible.
