At InPost UK, we’re building an unparalleled group of talent that’s committed to help us power our mission to reshape the way parcels move, and redefine eCommerce logistics. Our team is packed full of top-notch experts in e-commerce, technology, scale-up growth, sustainability, logistics and supply chain.

• Collaborate with our operations team to ensure that the installation of new lockers runs smoothly to time and forecast.
• Provide regular reports and updates on partnership performance and growth to partners and senior leadership.

What we need from you:

We’re looking for people who are ready for a fast paced environment, get their kicks out of problem solving and can balance getting today's stuff done, whilst building for the future. We’re looking for people with drive and natural curiosity – who want to do things differently. And do them brilliantly.

• Experience in account management or partnership development.
• Proven track record of effectively managing and growing partner relationships with major landlords or accounts.
