Your mandate is simple, but that does not mean it will be easy:

• Deliver our operational plans flawlessly
• Take full accountability for the day-to-day performance of the site
• Be a culture vector: set the standards and lead from the front
• Lead on the deployment of new products, technology and automation at the site

Great performance in this role means growth is never constrained by operational readiness, low performance or sloppy processes. You will be comfortable with forecasting, labour planning, performance management and setting the tone. You will work in partnership with key leaders from across the org to make sure the operation hums.

Key responsibilities

• Hands-on Leadership: You are an experienced operations leader, comfortable leading leaders & teams in a hands on warehouse environment
• Ownership: You carve out clear goals with your team, setting high standards with clear ownership and pride
• Deliverer: You help define—then turn the dial on—all operational metrics. Our customers deserve the best and you deliver this day-in day-out
• Set the Bar: Reinforce high standards, urgency, ownership, radical candour, care, and low tolerance for mediocrity across every new hire and team.
• Performance Management: Help retain strong performers, identify high-potential operators, and address underperformance quickly and fairly
• Forecasting: You know what it takes to set up a warehouse for success. You ensure that supply always meets demand, creating and executing flawless daily, weekly, and peak plans

Need to have

• Operations Leadership: While the exact industry/sector is not important, you must have ≥5 years leading on-site ops teams in a warehouse/distribution environment.
• Team Building: You have a track record of building strong and capable teams through periods of extensive growth and change. You have lead leaders before.
• Data Driven: Data is your language of love. It underpins your decision making and you leverage it to remove emotion and variability from operational decisions.
• Performance: You need to be comfortable operating in a highly metrics driven environment, where expectations are clearly set and standards relentlessly upheld.
• Integrity: You do the right thing even when no-one is looking and make sure every single person in the org does the same
• Sharpness: You are organised, detail-oriented, and able to build simple systems that enable the org to move faster without getting sloppy
• Collaboration: You are comfortable working directly with senior leadership, especially challenging them when needed
• Ownership: You have helped build and/or protect a high-performance culture where strong people feel challenged and supported, and learning from mistakes is celebrated

Nice to have

• Startup/scale-up experience: You have worked in a high-growth environment where priorities change quickly, the bar keeps rising, and nobody hands you a playbook
• Regulated experience: You have worked in a heavily regulated environment where sloppy people processes create real risk. This doesn’t scare you
• Systems thinker: You look past the immediate people problem and fix the system that created it
• AI-native: You use AI tools to move faster, improve quality, reduce admin, and increase your own output
• Agentic: You are a doer. You have been pulled into important problems, taken ownership outside your lane, and figured things out without waiting for permission
• Clockspeed: You can get dangerous in a new area quickly
• Range: You can run several important workstreams at once without dropping the ball

Our cultural standards

• Belief in the mission: We will have served 100 million patients by the end of 2035 and we transform the life of most patients who join.
• Unwavering integrity: We are at the frontier, so we often live in ambiguity with no trodden path.
• Only the paranoid survive: Bad sh*t is coming. By joining us, you’re choosing to sail straight towards the storms with unhesitating conviction.
• If we’re average we fail: We are only interested in “insanely great”, a focus on the quality of our execution.
• Commitment to candor: That which can be destroyed by the truth should be.
• A maniacal sense of urgency: We execute at an intensity that most people think is impossible.
• Enduring frugality: We are frugal. We hate being wasteful and we are anti-luxury.
• Bulldozing barriers: The world is malleable and we shape it.
• Keep your head down: We’re boring people doing exciting work.
• The power of focus: We live in a world of power laws and we cannot overestimate the unimportance of practically everything.
