Jobbeschreibung

Transportation Manager (f/m/x) (fixed-term contract)

• Full-time
• Division: Logistics

At Seven Senders, we connect people and markets, making international shipping simple.

We are Europe’s leading platform for cross-border parcel delivery, supporting e-commerce companies in scaling internationally and reaching millions of consumers across borders. By combining cutting-edge technology with strong local carrier networks, we ensure parcels move efficiently from warehouse to doorstep — whether speed or cost efficiency is the priority.

Founded in Berlin in 2015, Seven Senders has grown into a team of 200+ logistics and tech experts. Today, we proudly work with clients such as Flaconi, Shop Apotheke, and Tamaris, shaping the future of European delivery together.

About the role

Our Transport Management Team owns first-mile transport operations across Europe — planning, steering, and continuously improving daily transport flows together with our carrier partners. Punctual, high-quality deliveries are the heartbeat of our customer promise, and this role sits at the center of it.

You'll take full ownership of your carrier portfolio from day one, work independently in an agile environment, and learn directly from experienced logistics domain experts.

Your main responsibilities:

• Own on-time delivery performance: plan, control, and monitor daily transport deployments and drive the department's KPIs for delivery quality (punctuality, equipment availability, and more)
• Act as the go-to contact for internal teams, carriers, and other external parties on volumes, capacities, and delivery schedules
• Procure ad-hoc transport capacity when volumes spike — negotiating quickly and keeping goods moving
• Keep our transport management system accurate and up to date, so the whole team works from reliable data
• Spot bottlenecks and inefficiencies in first-mile processes and help fix them
• This position is limited contract

What you'll bring

• A degree in supply chain management, logistics, or a related field — or equivalent hands‑on experience
• 1+ years in freight forwarding or transport operations at a logistics company
• German at B2 level or above and business‑fluent English
• A proactive, ownership-driven working style — you flag problems early and solve them independently
• Ideally, experience in the e‑commerce logistics operations

What we offer:

Flexible & Hybrid Work:

Our office is at Alexanderplatz; we have a hybrid working model with flexible remote‑office set‑up and working hours. And if you wish, you can work from almost anywhere for up to 2 months per year.

Benefits:

We offer company lunches twice per month, a corporate benefits platform, and German language courses.

Mission Zero:

Climate-neutral and long-term impact. With our green initiatives, we are reaching climate neutrality for ourselves, and hopefully, we're inspiring the entire logistics sector to join us to create a sustainable future.

Vibrant Culture & Community:

We embody collaboration, open doors, and no‑fuss results focus, and we are successful with our data‑driven and efficient working approach. We like to celebrate and come together, and we strive for a workplace buzzing with energy and camaraderie, highlighted by regular team events, and company‑wide celebrations.

Inclusive Environment:

We value diversity and welcome all applicants regardless of ethnicity, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, or disability.
