• Experimenting with new approaches to activation and engagement, leveraging creativity and data to drive results;
• Communicating clearly and effectively with courier partners, using engaging and motivational touchpoints to encourage activity during critical times;
• Staying agile and adaptable, adjusting strategies quickly based on external factors such as demand fluctuations, special events, seasonality, and market specific trends;
• Leading innovation and continuous improvement initiatives in the courier activation framework, identifying gaps and implementing scalable solutions.

• Previous experience in operations, marketing, incentive design, and/or customer service is highly preferred;
• Familiarity with working with data, using Looker or similar data visualization tools is a plus;
