THE ROLE & THE TEAM

Zalando's Transport Management System (First, Middle & Last Mile) is used across all transportation operations in Zalando's network. With the move to a more flexible, platform-based architecture, we have ensured that additional optimisation potential is unlocked. The full realisation of this potential, however, at the current stage, often involves strategically rethinking and working on complete process chains with a long horizon of impact. The role thus focuses on such strategic areas across the board and helps elevate the work of the product team by supporting with deep dives, discovery, proper opportunity sizing and first project initiation. It is a senior position within a scaled Product delivery organisation that brings together the strong sides of consultancy services and the hands-on motivation of domain experts. The areas where the role will lend support are:

#1: Building and optimisation of Zalando's transport systems

#2: Central exchanges of capacities and cut-offs with the higher level of the system

#3: Customs services optimisation, data model and interface design
