About Mous

We are Mous. (Pronounced mouse, not moose.) People deserve tech and lifestyle products that are fit for purpose, perform as promised and empower them to be their best. We have consistently built our in-house expertise and spent millions in research and development on our relentless pursuit to make the best products possible. Over the past 10 years, we have focused on pushing the performance of products and creating engaging content to guide millions of customers to high-quality Mous products rather than making cheap products for Amazons algorithm. All with the aspiration that we can raise the standards of the industry and provide people with better products. We\'re creating products that empower people to be their best, whether they\'re on a wild adventure or commuting through the city. No matter what your everyday life looks like you can trust our products to remove frustrations, expand your experiences and help you to live without limits.

About the Role

We\'re excited to announce an opportunity for a Senior Logistics Assistant to join our fast-growing Logistics team.

• Managing quarantine stocks, keeping stock levels in line with KPIs and working on initiatives to extract maximum value.
• Collaborating with the Customer Experience team to troubleshoot any shipping queries or issues. Reporting on shipping contact ratio monthly and actively working on strategies and projects to reduce shipping queries from customers.
• Managing the retail logistics function, working closely across departments on B2B order fulfilment and strategy. Collaborating with internal and external key stakeholders across product launches, managing the fulfilment timeline and ensuring timely order fulfilment.

How success will be measured

• Excellent preparation leading to successful and smooth peak periods (launches, Black Friday and Christmas).
• Developing process improvements leading to cost improvements, operational efficiency and reduction in customer queries and shipping contact ratio.
• Owning and managing relationships with 3PL providers and other key stakeholders, fostering a great working relationship.
• Delivering against KPIs and project objectives.
