About

Ready for a challenge?

Then Just Eat Takeaway.com might be the place for you.

We’re a leading global online delivery platform, and our vision is to empower everyday convenience. Whether it’s a Friday-night feast, a post-gym poke bowl, or grabbing some groceries, our tech platform connects tens of millions of customers with hundreds of thousands of restaurant, grocery and convenience partners across the globe.

About this role

The Strategy and Operations Manager - Logistics is accountable for end-to-end optimisation of the delivery network for UK & Ireland, balancing cost, performance, and scalability. The role owns the strategic levers that drive material changes in spend and efficiency, ensuring the delivery network is optimised to support growth, profitability, and increasing product complexity.

This role is not a day-to-day execution role. It operates at a strategic level, setting direction, defining trade-offs, and ensuring the right frameworks, tooling, and accountability are in place to deliver sustainable outcomes at scale.

These are some of the key components to the position:
  • Lead high-impact delivery network initiatives across UK and Ireland to unlock material business impact.
  • Own the delivery optimisation strategy by balancing cost, performance, and courier experience & supply.
  • Partner with Global owners to execute key delivery initiatives like pooling and network flow optimisation.
  • Define investment methodology and Return On Investment (ROI) frameworks for delivery spend.
  • Act as the senior operational partner to Product and Tech to embed optimisation in new tools.
  • Present clear, data-driven recommendations and outcomes to senior leadership and stakeholders.
  • Develop and lead the Courier Lead and Cost Optimisation Manager with clear accountability.
What will you bring to the team?
  • Proven ability to lead operations strategy or optimisation in a fast-paced environment.
  • Track record of delivering high-impact initiatives with clear financial and operational outcomes.
  • Analytical skills to structure ambiguous problems and work confidently with large datasets.
  • Experience influencing investment decisions and managing Return On Investment (ROI) driven projects.
  • Excellent stakeholder management skills with the ability to align diverse, cross-functional teams.
  • Confident communication skills to translate complex analysis into actionable business recommendations.
  • Proactive mindset with the ability to anticipate impacts and think one step ahead.
