Join us!

As a Launch Manager, you will have a unique opportunity to demonstrate launch mobility solutions to new city markets throughout Europe.

With support from our HQ teams, you will set up the operations infrastructure necessary for field teams to operate e-Scooter programs.

At its core, this fast-paced, entrepreneurial role is the key to the success of our programs by ensuring that all launch-related infrastructure is in place, a local operations team is hired & trained, and guidance & coaching continues post-launch as the local team becomes self-sufficient.

This role will also work closely with HQ teams providing product feedback and demonstrations (hardware and software), as well as with local teams to help roll out best practices.

This is a six months role with a possibility of extension.

- 2- Lead by example, by becoming fluent in all launch-related tasks, and jumping in and working those jobs when needed.

-

Provide guidance & coaching to the local team during & post-launch**:

- 1- Ensure the local operations team has been trained & educated on daily operational tasks & responsibilities.

- 2- Provide instruction and mentorship for Operations Managers in the field.

- 3- Oversee the local operations team, ensuring that the team is working cohesively and is performing according to established operational metrics.

-

Support Technology Demonstrations

- 1- Coordinate with the Demonstration and Implementation next team to showcase Superpedestrain technology to cities and conferences.

- 2- Arrange demonstration logistics and prepare technology in coordination with engineering and supply chain teams.

**Who you are**:

- 3+ years of operations management, business consulting, or related experience managing operations/logistics, building and leading diverse teams, developing and optimizing processes, and achieving operational goals.
