Operations Manager

€50.000 – €60.000 per year

TLDR

Lead and enhance operational performance for a logistics site handling over 3 million packages annually, impacting customer satisfaction and supporting continuous improvement initiatives.

E-commerce is booming, but independent brands still struggle to compete with the seamless logistics of giants like Amazon. At Bigblue, we’ve made it our mission to change that. We help brands by democratizing best operational practices: we enable them to grow faster while delivering a five-star customer experience. Since 2018, we’ve developed a technology-driven logistics platform that supports over 500 brands —from fast-growing DNVBs to major international companies such as MUJI, Aigle, and Cabaïa. With over 110 employees across Paris, Madrid, and London, a proprietary WMS (Atlas), and a network of 7 warehouses in Europe, we are building a faster, smarter, and more sustainable logistics system. Bigblue also operates its own warehouse in Normandy (35,000 m²), designed as a center of operational excellence, at the heart of our growth strategy. Amid strong growth (over 10 million orders by 2024), we are seeking an Operations Manager to lead and enhance the performance of our Évreux site.
