We are a technology-driven company at the forefront of the most rapidly expanding industry in the world. We are still a small team, making a very large impact, looking to answer some of the most interesting questions out there. We move fast, value autonomy and ownership, and we are always looking for new ideas.

Collaborating with various functions across Deliveroo, you will proactively provide partners with category insights, and thought leadership as a specialist in on-demand delivery.

Using data to understand patterns in how these partners are performing and creating compelling insight into how and where they can improve will be critical to your success in the role. You will need to be able to manage multiple projects at once, interacting with key functions such as National Accounts (Grocery & Restaurants), Marketing, Operations and Product.
