Role Overview:

We are seeking a detail-oriented and execution-driven professional to own the end-to-end post-purchase journey for our marketplace. This role requires managing both seller dispatch readiness and 3PL performance across the lifecycle of an order: packing pickup in-transit delivery returns claims customer ticket closure.

The ideal candidate will ensure operational reliability, cost efficiency, and seamless retailer/customer experience by combining strong vendor management, data-driven decision-making, and hands-on problem-solving.

Key Responsibilities:

Seller Dispatch Operations:

- Drive dispatch readiness by ensuring timely packing, order confirmation, and minimal post-order OOS (Out-of-Stock).

- Monitor seller compliance SLAs (dispatch time, packaging quality, invoice accuracy, weight accuracy).

- Standardise and enforce packaging guidelines to reduce damages, leakage, and RTOs.

3PL Management & Performance:

- Manage end-to-end relationships with logistics partners (first-mile, line-haul, last-mile, reverse logistics).

- Ensure adherence to SLA metrics: On-Time Pickup, On-Time Delivery (OTD), RTO %, transit TAT, exception % (NDR, damage, lost shipments).

- Track 3PL cost components (zone slabs, volumetric weight, COD/Prepaid splits) and drive cost optimisation.

- Audit 3PL invoicing, penalties, and claims to minimise leakage and improve recovery.

Process Optimisation & Exception Management:

- Analyse transit exceptions (delays, returns, damages, lost shipments) and implement corrective actions.

- Optimise allocation logic across sellers and logistics providers for faster, cost-effective deliveries.

- Work with Ops & CS to reduce WISMO (Where Is My Order) contact rate by proactive communication and SLA adherence.

- Ensure ticket closure TAT and root-cause fix for recurring customer complaints.

Analytics & Reporting:

- Develop and monitor dashboards for logistics KPIs: OTD %, RTO %, Transit Damage %, NDR %, Cost/Shipment, SLA adherence.

- Conduct lane-level and pin-code level analysis to highlight underperforming corridors, stations, or partners.

- Drive continuous improvement projects leveraging structured problem-solving (Lean/Six Sigma preferred).

- Provide weekly/monthly business reviews with insights on SLA performance, penalties, and cost 4 to 10 years of experience in e-commerce logistics, supply chain, or 3PL operations.

Strong understanding of:

- Seller dispatch operations (packaging, invoicing, dispatch TAT).

- 3PL contracts & SLA frameworks (OTD, RTO, penalty/claims, volumetric billing).

- Cost optimization levers in logistics (zonal optimization, carrier allocation, weight accuracy, reverse logistics).

- Strong proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets (pivot, macros, cost analysis).

- Working knowledge of SQL, BI tools (Tableau, PowerBI, Looker, Metabase, etc.) is a strong plus.

- Strong vendor management and negotiation skills.

- Structured problem-solving mindset with a bias for action and ownership.

- Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth marketplace environment.
