Offer description

About Us We are Ocado Solutions, and we lead our global corporate partnerships, delivering the cutting-edge Ocado Smart Platform (OSP) to top-tier retailers around the world. OSP offers a comprehensive solution combining advanced automation technology with end-to-end software applications, enabling retailers to operate world-class online grocery businesses. Our platform ensures optimal operational efficiency, exceptional customer experience, and superior service for our partners. Since 2017, we’ve secured agreements with some of the world’s largest grocers, including Groupe Casino (France), Sobeys (Canada), ICA (Sweden), Kroger (USA), Coles (Australia), AEON (Japan), Alcampo (Spain), Bon Preu (Spain), Lotte (South Korea), Auchan (Poland), Panda (Saudi), and our UK partner Morrisons, alongside the Ocado/M&S joint venture.

Key deliverables include creating a Fleet Scorecard, developing a Fleet Optimisation Playbook and training, and implementing structured improvement programs for partners. Since fleets are partner-owned, success depends on your ability to drive change through influence and negotiation, not direct control. You will also provide strategic input to our Product Team on technological enhancements within the Ocado Smart Platform (OSP). This is a high-impact role for an experienced optimisation manager ready to deliver measurable results. About you Minimum of 10 years of progressive experience in fleet optimisation, with at least 5 years in a senior leadership role overseeing a portfolio of complex productivity initiatives, preferably within the logistics, courier, or supply chain industry.

Demonstrable experience in implementing change programs that have delivered significant and measurable operational improvements. Previous experience and demonstrable breadth and depth of knowledge of the Last Mile Operations environment. Previous experience and knowledge with both EV and ICE fleets and supporting infrastructure. Exceptional leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills with the ability to influence and inspire diverse teams. Strong analytical, operational and problem-solving abilities, with a keen eye for detail and a results-oriented approach. What we offer We believe in supporting our people with meaningful, flexible benefits that prioritise well-being and work-life balance. Here’s a snapshot of what you can expect: Time to recharge : 25 days annual leave (rising to 27 after 5 years), plus the option to buy more – and 30 days a year to work from anywhere in the world. Health & wellbeing : Private Medical Insurance from your first month, wellbeing support through specialist apps and EAP, plus Income Protection and Life Assurance.
