- Customer Experience: Ensure our team delivers a professional and pleasant experience for every courier and customer who walks through our doors.
- Staffing Support: Fill in shifts during call-outs and act as general staffing support.
- Inventory & Audits: Review daily inventories, place replenishment orders when needed, and perform storage and common area audits.
