The Role

We are looking for an Account Manager Manager to join our UKI Chinese Category team.

• You will be good at building relationships
• You will be comfortable with project management
• Comfortable looking at and acting on data
• You will take ownership and work within demanding targets
• An interest in all things food and restaurants

• Oversee the restaurant onboarding process to ensure it is as quick, efficient and seamless as possible
• Ensure restaurant success within the first eight weeks of signing
• Sample food from a variety of high-quality establishments

Why Deliveroo?

Our mission is to be the definitive food company. We are transforming the way the world eats by making food more convenient and accessible. We give people the opportunity to eat what they want, when and where they want it.

We are a technology-driven company at the forefront of the most rapidly expanding industry in the world. We are still a small team, making a very large impact, seeking to answer some of the most interesting questions out there. We move fast, value autonomy and ownership, and we are always looking for new ideas.

Benefits and Diversity

At Deliveroo we know that people are the heart of the business and we prioritise their welfare.

We believe a great workplace is one that represents the world we live in and how beautifully diverse it can be. That means we have no judgement when it comes to any one of the things that make you who you are - your gender, race, sexuality, religion or a secret aversion to coriander. All you need is experience with (most) food and a desire to be part of one of the fastest growing startups in an incredibly exciting space.
