As a Shift Manager, you'll have responsibility for the day-to-day management of a Delivery Station, providing leadership to Operations Supervisors, Operations Assistants, and Delivery Service Providers, managing external agency relationships and performance. This team will work in a highly collaborative environment that's more startup than big company.
We're in uncharted territory, doing what's never been done. The adopted attitude is that no idea is a bad idea, and the best ideas are the ones that should be tested and tried. You will need to thrive and deliver results in an ambiguous, fast-paced, dynamic environment.
If you have a quality-focused, customer-obsessed industry background which carries with it experience of working in a fast-paced, ever-changing, and ambiguous environment (such as manufacturing, the military, or engineering for example), we'd love to hear from you.
