About The Role:
Background
Our north star at Veho is simple: we want to Win It All: become a large, profitable, and irreplaceable company that will change the face of this industry. In 2016 when we started Veho, we had a clear conviction: e-commerce will continue to grow; Amazon will pressure everyone else to push the boundaries around speed, cost, and customer experience, and legacy carriers will fail to adapt. We started Veho to replace these legacy carriers with a customer-centric shipping company designed for the e-commerce era. Eight years later, the industry is changing again and in front of our eyes.
As we foresaw in 2016, many legacy carriers are struggling - some of them are going out of business. At the same time, more and more disruptors are entering the space, and more large international companies are trying to figure out how to play in this market.To continue winning in this space and build one of the greatest companies in the world, we must get super smart about this competitive landscape. We need to constantly read the map, develop a point of view, and act on it boldly to our advantage.
