Job Description:

Veho's mission is to revolutionize the world of package delivery by creating exceptional experiences for customers and drivers.-- For too long, parcel delivery companies have focused solely on efficiencies and cost-management. Veho focuses on the end-customer. As the first technology company of its kind, Veho replaces the old delivery trucks with a platform of crowdsourced drivers and a network of hyper-local distribution centers. We partner with some of the most recognized consumer brands such as Warby Parker and Hello Fresh to provide an incredible experience with every delivery, and give customers control on how, when and where their package is delivered.-- Customers LOVE us. Despite growing at a record-speed over the past two years, we maintain an incredibly high customer satisfaction rating of 4.9/5 stars, and an unprecedented on-time delivery rate of 99.9% - far above every other company in the country.-- In short, we are building the logistics platform of the future. Veho is backed by former top executives and board members at Uber, FedEx, UPS, eBay and Amazon; three former public company CEOs, and early investors in Lyft and Instacart. We are a team of leaders who are passionate about building an incredible company that will change the face of this industry. As a General Manager, you will be primarily responsible for steering and scaling our operation in the Colorado & Mountain Region and additional markets in the United States.

You will be the primary conduit between the central HQ team and the teammates on the ground in your market who interact with our drivers and customers every day. You will own the market P&L, establish KPIs and team budgets, and drive continuous improvement based on metrics. You will head an organization of several dozen Veho team members, across dispatch, ground operations, and other administrative functions. As a team manager, you will be responsible for the professional development of your team of supervisors, and will help teach them the skills necessary to be successful in the operation while listening to their aspirations, and helping shape them as managers in their own right. This role requires decisiveness and team management skills, as well as data analysis and obsession with numbers, operational excellence, and ultimately providing an exceptional experience to our clients and drivers.
