Join us in our mission to transform the way people shop and eat, where impact, innovation, and growth drives everything we do. Our Site Operations team powers the physical side of our marketplace through HOP and Editions. From launching new sites to ensuring operational excellence across markets, we combine retail and hospitality expertise with operational rigour. If you thrive in hands‑on environments and want to help redefine how food and groceries reach customers—come join us on the ground.

We’re looking for a Site Associate to join our Manchester team. In this role, you’ll help us maintain a high‑standard environment for our restaurant partners and ensure orders move seamlessly from kitchen to rider.

You’ll be joining the Editions team. Editions is our pioneering "dark kitchens" business, partnering with brands like Wagamama and Starbucks to connect them with hungry customers through delivery‑only hubs.

Here’s what your day‑to‑day might look like:

• Maintain Site Excellence: Execute regular deep cleaning of equipment and communal areas to ensure health and safety standards are always met.
• Support Dispatch Operations: Run food from partner kitchens to the dispatch area and communicate effectively with riders to ensure fast delivery.
• Partner Support: Manage the "pot wash" and keep kitchen equipment clean and ready for use to help our restaurant partners stay efficient.
• Operational Safety: Participate in regular site checks with the management team to identify and resolve safety or cleanliness issues.
• Problem Solving: Identify bottlenecks in daily tasks and make recommendations to improve the flow of the site.

Our ideal candidate will bring strong expertise in some of these areas and curiosity to grow in others:

• A Positive, Can-Do Attitude: You bring energy to the team and are driven to learn new skills.
• Reliability: You take pride in your punctuality and being a teammate others can count on.
• Adaptability: You are comfortable working autonomously and as part of a fast‑paced team.
• Attention to Detail: You have a high standard for cleanliness and safety.
• Collaborative Spirit: You enjoy working alongside diverse partners and solving problems in real time.

• Free monthly Friday lunch on Deliveroo
• 25 days’ holiday (with increases based on service)
• Career development and access to learning opportunities
• Life assurance and wellbeing support
• Free Deliveroo Plus—no delivery fees on your orders

At Deliveroo, we know that a great workplace reflects the world around us and that true diversity and inclusion make us stronger, more creative, and better at what we do. We’re committed to fostering an environment where everyone can do their best work and feel they belong.

We believe in equality of opportunity and welcome candidates from all backgrounds regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, socio-economic background, religion, or belief.

If you have a disability or long-term health condition and need support to apply for one of our roles, or require any reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process, you’ll have the opportunity to let us know once you’ve submitted your application. We’ll share details on how to request support so we can ensure you have a fair and equitable experience.

If you’re excited about making a real impact in a fast-moving marketplace and growing your career alongside ambitious, supportive teams, we’d love to hear from you!
