What You’ll Do:
- Run daily onsite operations, ensuring safe, reliable, and accessible transportation for our riders.
- Drive continuous optimization across the field team and service, leveraging data, technology, AI, and automation - including leading AI projects from idea to implementation.
- Make real-time decisions on fleet, driver supply, compliance, rider needs, and unexpected issues - using data to quickly diagnose problems and keep service running smoothly.
- Guide and support drivers, building strong relationships and identifying opportunities to improve field team performance.
- Turn rider and community feedback into actionable improvements, using data to spot patterns and address root causes.
- Act as the bridge between Via's partners, drivers, and Via central teams, quickly pulling data to answer questions, solve problems, and drive improvements.
Who You Are:
- Operationally experienced in people management, logistics, customer service, or other process-oriented work.
- Relationship-oriented and a strong communicator, able to build trust with drivers, riders, teammates, and city partners and find the right tone at every level.
- Hands-on and proactive, comfortable taking responsibility for employees, being in the field, and solving problems where they happen - even under pressure.
- Data-driven, structured, and digitally savvy, using analytics and AI tools to solve problems, prioritize effectively, and improve our services.
- Tactical and strategic, able to tackle issues in real time while thinking ahead and building solutions that prevent them from recurring.
- You have a proficiency level of at least C1 in both German and English.
- You have a valid drivers license in Germany, class B.
