Market Operations Leadership Development Program - New Graduate

Location: Atlanta, GA Department: Market Operations

Market Operations Leadership Development Program — New Graduate: JANUARY, 2027 START DATE

Most jobs ask you to figure out your future before your first day. This one doesn't.

This is a 12 to 18 month leadership development program that starts on the driveway and leads to an operations leadership role in one of our last mile delivery locations, iconic car Vending Machines, or new car showrooms across the country.

Every six months you'll apply what you’ve learned through mentorship and coursework to get certified in a different part of how Carvana actually operates.

About the Opportunity

Our Leadership Development Program starts where many Carvana leaders did, the Market Operations Customer Advocate role. Your focus will start at creating memorable experiences on the driveway or at our state of the art Car Vending Machine, alongside getting to:

Put our AI and products to work every day (we're a tech company that also sells cars), learning the systems that move a car from click to customer.

Learn how a world-class fulfillment operation moves cars, haulers, and people from first to last mile, and build the skills to lead one.

Drive our signature car hauler (the image of Carvana on the road that we designed ourselves) to deliver a curated experience that our customers will never forget.

Get your hands on the whole operation, from the detail bay to the driveway, learning the work by doing it instead of reading about it.

Learn and work at our unmistakable car Vending Machines.

Develop leadership skills and credentials that will unlock career opportunities in driving fast-growth operations.

Who we're looking for

You earned your Bachelor's degree in the last three years

You're drawn to customer-obsessed operations that are tech-forward, fast-growing, and complex enough to never get boring.

You're curious how a real company actually runs, end to end, not just the part in front of you.

You want a program with a real finish line, one built to launch you into operations leadership.

You value the importance of building a strong foundation of knowledge through hands-on experience.
