What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll be joining the Strategy & Operations team. This team is responsible for ensuring our courier network remains stable, engaged, and responsive across multiple markets. We oversee the lifecycle experience following onboarding, focusing on enabling new couriers to get started successfully and supporting ongoing participation over time to maintain a reliable and adaptable supply base.
Here’s what your day-to-day might look like:
Strategic Direction & Execution
Set the strategic vision for your team, translating high-level business goals into clear, actionable workstreams that support network stability and resilience.
Act as a talent multiplier by coaching, developing, and managing a high-performing team, fostering a culture of ownership and technical excellence.
Network Operations & Performance
Maintain a deep pulse on network dynamics beyond onboarding, identifying emerging risks or opportunities and implementing effective operational responses.
Balance team capacity against fast-moving operational demands, ensuring your team successfully acts as the bridge between data-driven insights and cross-market execution.
Stakeholder Leadership & Influence
Act as the primary advocate for your team across the wider business, building strong relationships with Product, Data, and broader Operations functions.
Secure cross-functional buy-in, clearly communicate strategic trade-offs to senior leadership, and align stakeholders on scaling initiatives.

Essential
Proven people leadership: Demonstrated experience managing and developing high-performing teams in complex, fast-paced environments, with a strong ability to coach direct reports.
Strategic vision: Proven capability to translate high-level business objectives into clear, actionable frameworks and own the execution end-to-end.
Strong stakeholder management: Expert at building relationships across product, data, and operations, with a proven ability to influence senior leadership.
Data-driven decision making: Strong competence navigating ambiguity, using data to structure complex problems, guide prioritisation, and measure collective impact.
Bias for outcomes: A track record of focusing on scalable business outcomes rather than just output, cultivating an environment of continuous improvement and iteration.

Prior experience within courier, logistics, or gig economy operations.
Familiarity with experimentation, measurement design, and operational change management.
Experience using basic automation tools (such as Zapier, smart spreadsheets, or basic scripts) to streamline repetitive workflows in high-volume operations.
