Head of Operations - Security and Loss Prevention
Head of Operations - Security and Loss Prevention
In the future, almost everything we consume will simply materialise on our doorsteps – what we call “e-commerce” today
will simply be “commerce” tomorrow. But if we continue on today’s trajectory, the growth of e-commerce risks damaging the
environment, alienating our communities, and straining the bottom-line for small businesses.
Relay is an e-commerce-native logistics network. We are built from the ground up for environmental, social, and economic sustainability.
By building from the ground up we are able to entirely rethink both the middle and last mile enabling us to reduce the number of miles
driven to deliver each parcel, lower carbon emissions, and lower costs, all while channelling funds to community members.
At the same time, we’re fixing the last broken aspect of e-commerce for consumers: delivery. As shoppers, we should have complete
control over when and how we receive our purchases, and we should be able to return unwanted items as easily as we ordered them.
That’s why whenever you buy from a merchant powered by Relay, you’ll be able to reschedule your delivery at any time. And if you don’t
like what you ordered, at the tap of a button we’ll send someone to pick it up.
To orchestrate this complex ballet, Relay relies on a wide range of technologies, from advanced routing and planning to sophisticated
user experiences that guide our team members on the ground. We are looking for a Head of Customer Service Operations who will be
responsible for overseeing Courier, Client, and End Customer queries, and ensuring that our customers receive the highest level of service.
As a Customer Service Operations Lead, you will be accountable for key metrics such as customer satisfaction, response time, resolution rate,
and team productivity. You will be responsible for building and leading a team of customer service agents, setting up processes and protocols,
and implementing best practices for delivering exceptional customer service

There is truly no job within the Delivery Operations you would not be excited to take on. From launching new cities in no time to meet our rapid growth objectives to putting yourself in the courier's shoes by completing last mile routes to understand your impact on the end to end operations, you want to do it all. We don’t expect you to have done all of these jobs before, but we do hope you’ll be curious to learn how to do them.
