Job Description & How to Apply Below

Relay is fundamentally reshaping how goods move in an online era. Backed by Europe’s largest-ever logistics Series A ($35M), led by deep-tech investors Plural (whose portfolio spans fusion energy and space exploration), Relay is scaling faster than 99.98% of venture‑backed startups. We're assembling the most talent‑dense team the logistics industry has ever seen.

Relay’s Mission is to free commerce from friction
. Today, high delivery costs act as a hidden tax on e‑commerce, quietly shaping what can be sold online and limiting who can participate. We envision a world where more goods move more freely between more people
, making the online shopping experience seamless and accessible to everyone.

THE TEAM
  • ~110 people, more than half in engineering, product and data
  • 45+ advanced degrees across computer science, mathematics and operations research
  • Thousands of data points captured, calculated, analysed and predicted for every single parcel we handle
  • An intellectually vibrant culture of first‑principles thinking, tight feedback loops and relentless experimentation
The Opportunity

We offer Day and Night Shifts.

Responsibilities
  • Overseeing sortation operations during your shift to ensure targets are met
  • Supporting with recruitment, onboarding, and training of site operatives
  • Leading, motivating, and coaching your team to high performance
  • Ensuring health & safety standards are upheld and continuously improved
  • Identifying and acting on opportunities to drive efficiency and service quality

Who Will Thrive in this role?
  • Previous experience in a fast‑paced operational or warehouse environment
  • A proactive leader with strong communication and team‑building skills
  • Able to think on your feet, solve problems, and make sound decisions under pressure
  • Comfortable using data to track performance and make improvements
  • A hands‑on, positive attitude and a willingness to roll up your sleeves
Fast and Focused Hiring Process
  • Talent Acquisition Interview - 30 min
  • Hiring Manager Interview - 90 mins
  • Final Interview - 1 hour
  • Decision and offer within 48 hours. Our process mirrors our pace of work.
  • Compensation, Benefits & Workplace
    • Generous equity, richer than 99% of European startups, with annual top‑ups to share Relay’s success

    • Enhanced parental leave
    • Hardware of your choice
    • Extensive perks (gym subsidies, cycle‑to‑work, Friday office lunch, covered Uber home and dinner for late nights, and more)

    • Aim with Precision:
      You define problems clearly and measure your impact meticulously
    • Play to Win:
      You chase bold bets, tackle the hard stuff, and view constraints as fuel, not friction
    • 1% Better Every Day:
      You believe that small, consistent improvements lead to exponential growth. You move quickly, deliver results, and learn from every experience
    • All In, All the Time:
      You show up and step up. You take ownership from start to finish and do what it takes to deliver when it counts
    • People‑Powered Greatness:
      You invest in your teammates. You give and receive feedback with care and candour. You build trust through high standards and shared success
    • Grow the Whole Pie:
