We usually respond within a month
At Aviant, we enable autonomous parcel delivery by drone. After starting in the labs at MIT in 2020, Aviant has signed ten commercial contracts in Scandinavia, flown over 2,500 flights covering more than 35,000 km, built a robust team of 20 people, and managed to take a leading position in the European drone market. Due to solid commercial traction, we are looking to expand our business team.
Who are we looking for?
We have recently launched Kyte, one of two live European drone delivery services, and seek someone with experience in operations and growth to lead a new way of delivery in logistics.
We are launching our service in two cities and the responsibilities are in three key areas:
- Setting up an effective growth engine for customer acquisition (B2C) with performance marketing, content and partner-promotions
- Forming strategic partnerships with suppliers (like restaurants, grocery chains, etc)
- Coordinate across teams including the product and drone pilots to ensure smooth operations as we scale
So, we believe that if you have the experience working within marketplaces, delivery-services sector or logistics-tech, you would be a great fit for the ambitions of the role.
Requirements
- 3+ years experience in operations and growth in fast-paced environments
- Experience within delivery, last-mile logistics or marketplaces is a big plus
- Experience in B2C especially within Go-to-market strategies and/or market expansion launches is a big plus
- Flexibility to travel (approx 10-20%)
- Experience in project management and team leadership is an advantage
- Being structured and having a passion for automation is a big asset
- Proficiency in English and fluency in other languages are advantageous
- Being entrepreneurial and hands-on with a passion for growth
Why join us?
- Impact: An opportunity to impact logistics and automate last-mile deliveries that would truly transform how we send and receive things forever
- Growth: Market timing and commercial tractions are favoring us and this will be a journey of a lifetime to scale from the ground up and becoming a solid player within autonomous logistics
- Culture: We are a competent and passionate team with an inclusive non-bureaucratic culture where we support each other to constantly exceed our expectations
- Competitive Salary with generous Stock options: You will be part of our core team and we will be scaling together with you having ownership in our growth
Not all bullet points above are required, but they should give a general sense of the skillset we seek.
In Aviant, we have a broad range of backgrounds, but we all have in common that we love solving problems. Our vision is to make society more efficient. Therefore, we are seeking enthusiasts who wish to build something that matters. If this sounds like you, we hope that you apply!
We have a running application deadline for this position and will evaluate candidates as they apply.
