💛 Our commitment to diversity
We care deeply about creating a diverse team so we particularly encourage applications from people from different underrepresented demographics and encourage you, regardless of your background and past experience, to apply if the role excites you.
If we want to solve problems for people across the UK (and one day around the world), our team has to represent those we’re solving them for. So we need to attract the best talent and create an environment that supports and includes them.

You should apply if:
- You’re excited about what we’re doing! We’re a tech company working in a large, very traditional industry and that gives us a huge opportunity to build something truly different.
- You’re an excellent communicator that can resolve issues for both businesses and individuals with our tone-of-voice.
- You have previous experience as a Customer Operations Manager or a similar CS role.
- You’re a problem solver who loves finding ways to make processes work as efficiently as possible.
- You’re comfortable getting hands-on in a very early stage startup environment. We’re still a small team and so you’ll be involved in everything.
- You are confident in conflict resolution and customer complaint handling.
- You care about the team and culture we are building, and understand the importance of giving feedback and supporting others around you.
Benefits
What you’ll get:
- A competitive internally-transparent salary and stock options in Packfleet, with the choice to trade-off salary for additional stock options on signing. The range for this role, based on experience, is £40,000 - £45,000 alongside meaningful equity.
- Experience at an early stage startup, with a team that’s taken companies from zero-to-one before.
- A close knit working environment where everybody is working in the same direction, with regular monthly socials.
- A company & culture that cares about the people within it, with benefits like health insurance, mental health days-off, a learning budget, internally-transparent salaries and 35 days holiday (inc. bank holidays) with top-ups & unpaid holiday if you need more.
- Our Recharge Day on the last Friday of every month: a paid day off, to spend doing something you enjoy with others in the team, rest and recuperate, or a bit of both.
- A budget to spend at our merchants every month, as well as free deliveries through Packfleet, so you can support independent businesses and also get the Packfleet experience first hand.
- The equipment you need to work to your best.
