Description

SKUTOPIA is on a mission to democratise and decarbonise logistics. SKUTOPIA is a deep-tech logistics company operating under a dual RaaS (Robotics-as-a-Service) and SaaS model. We deliver end-to-end, AI-powered robotic fulfilment for retailers - eliminating inefficiencies inherent in traditional 3PL models, such as human error, high labour costs, and carbon-heavy processes. Our advanced robotics and proprietary AI empower our customers to scale faster with high-speed, high-quality fulfilment at a fraction of the typical cost - while also driving both revenue and profit growth. Founded in 2018 by Talea Bader and Emily Townsend, SKUTOPIA began as Sydney’s first eCommerce co-working space. After witnessing firsthand the logistics challenges faced by SMBs, the founders evolved the business into a tech-first fulfilment solution.

We think you will need: ● Strong experience in Supply Chain, preferably within a warehousing and logistics environment. ● Creative and open mindset. ● High level of analysis and long term view. ● Lean and Six Sigma methodologies knowledge (desirable). ● Adaptable and hands on approach. When you join us, you’ll be an important pillar of a rapidly growing company. From day one you will be challenged to take risks, think big and make an impact while getting lots of love and support from the team. With our expected growth over the next 12 months, this is a role with plenty of breadth and variety where you can grow with us and be proud of what we achieve together. We proudly welcome people from all diverse backgrounds. When you join SKUTOPIA, we want you to bring your whole self to work and we value your unique contribution. What's next? If you're keen to find out more, apply now with your resume and we'll be in touch soon to schedule an initial screening call where we will walk you through the recruitment process. Usually, we kick things off with a “getting to know you” interview, then we’ll ask you to tackle a take-home challenge or case study, and wrap it up with a final interview. Still on the fence? We know that statistically, some groups are less likely to apply for a role than others, depending on their perception of whether they meet some or all of the criteria. If you have most of the things we're looking for, we encourage you to apply!
