Description

At Picnic, we operate some of the most modern automated food fulfillment centers in Europe – using a blend of robotics, smart software, and a people-first culture. With over 3,000 EPVs (Electric Picnic Vehicles), we deliver groceries daily in over 100 German cities. Our recent investment round, which also includes the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, demonstrates the confidence in our concept. As Senior Operations Manager, you will play a crucial role in ensuring the satisfaction of our customers and employees. 

Be there from the start: We're opening our new hybrid fulfillment center in Falkensee next July! An earlier start is possible and ideal for onboarding. We can organize this at one of our other locations until then, for example in Ludwigsfelde or at our automated fulfillment center in Oberhausen.
