- Ensure that planning and scheduling of our carriers is optimal based on various factors such as forecast, historical trends, vehicles capacity and carrier capabilities.
- Facilitate the flow of information between different stakeholders (tech, sales, customer support, etc.) and lead resolution of any potential issues that impact customer experience and business continuity, in a fast-paced environment.
- Work closely with our engineers to ensure that there is a constant feedback-loop between operations and tech, to increase the automation of and productivity in our operations.


What we’re looking for?

- A minimum of 6 years experience in a top tier consulting, strategy, operational and/or tech start up.
- Bachelors degree in science/engineering, economics, finance, management, or similar field (MBA a plus)
- Experience and strong track record from startups within logistics (ride-sharing, food delivery, last-mile delivery, etc.) is a plus.
- Data-driven decision mentality and sound business judgment through deep analytical thinking
- A high tolerance for calculated risk and constant change and a tremendous drive to achieve and inspire
- Disciplined organizational skills - you'll need to prioritize and manage tens of ongoing processes and projects simultaneously at a fast pace
- Able to balance the role of the strategist with urgency while simultaneously managing delivering results in a growing and very fast-paced environment.
- Get stuff done attitude: you are not afraid of rolling up your sleeves and getting your hands dirty
- Fluent in Swedish and English


At Airmee our vision is to optimize all the logistics in cities to make it more environmentally sustainable while providing the best delivery experience in the world.

You will be working with a diverse group of talented, motivated, smart, and interesting co-workers. Being part of a startup in its growth phase you will have the opportunity to influence the culture and build a team around you. You will also have a lot of freedom in how to execute tasks.
