Role Overview

This role is ideal for someone who can bridge the gap between software product teams, logistics and operation’s teams.

Key Responsibilities

Product & Implementation Execution

  • Serve as the operational lead on rollout and implementation of logistics-focused tools or solutions.
  • Coordinate deployment, configuration, and on-the-ground support for systems related to routing, fleet visibility, or supply chain.
  • Ensure access to accurate operational data: fuel consumption, parcel tracking, route timing, delivery cost breakdowns, etc.
  • Collaborate with engineers and data teams to align business needs with technical deliverables.
  • Work closely with users (drivers, fleet controllers, dispatchers, etc.) to ensure adoption and gather ongoing feedback.
  • Track defined success metrics, including cost savings, route efficiency, and delivery performance and report regularly.

Data & Operational Analysis

  • Own the collection, cleaning, and validation of operational and logistical data.
  • Build and maintain structured data pipelines or reporting templates.
  • Use Excel (advanced formulas, pivot tables, VLOOKUPs) to analyse trends and identify inefficiencies.
  • Interpret data into insights that guide business decisions and product iterations.

Cross-functional Project Management

  • Manage stakeholders across technical, product, and operational departments.
  • Maintain timelines, priorities, and feedback loops between internal teams and end-users.
  • Identify risks, misalignments, or data issues and escalate or resolve proactively.
  • Document learnings, outcomes, and recommendations for future phases or rollouts.
