The Kind of Person Who Will Do Well
n
This role will suit someone who naturally asks:

Why has this delivery failed?
n
Is this happening repeatedly?
n
What does the data tell us?
n
Can we automate this instead of doing it manually every day?
n
n
You do not need to be a data scientist or automation expert, but you should be comfortable working with numbers and genuinely interested in using technology to make an operation run better.
n
There will also be opportunities to get out into the operation through carrier depot visits and delivery ride-alongs, giving you direct exposure to how the network performs in the real world.
