Manager, Supply Strategy & Operations
About the role
The Supply Strategy & Operations Manager is a critical leadership role at the intersection of strategy and execution. You will own our entire supply-side ecosystem: building and managing relationships with national, regional, and local delivery service providers (DSPs); defining the strategy for how we grow and optimize our supply network; and driving the operational rigor needed to hit best-in-class delivery performance metrics.
Responsibilities
Define and execute a multi-tier DSP network strategy across national, regional, and local providers to ensure coverage, redundancy, and cost efficiency

Build frameworks for DSP tiering, preferred partner programs, and volume allocation based on performance and strategic fit
Partner with leadership on pricing, margin, and supply economics to inform long-range business planning
Serve as the primary point of contact for key DSP partners, building trusted, long-term relationships with owner-operators and national account teams
Negotiate contracts, SLAs, and commercial terms with carrier partners
Lead regular business reviews with strategic DSPs, driving accountability against performance targets and surfacing mutual growth opportunities
Own core supply KPIs end-to-end, including successful delivery rate, on-time delivery (OTD), cancellations, refund rates, and DSP support ticket resolution
Establish and maintain DSP scorecards; drive structured performance improvement plans (PIPs) for underperforming partners
Lead cross-functional initiatives with Product, Engineering, Merchant Success, and Support to resolve systemic supply issues
Build and maintain operational playbooks for DSP onboarding, incident management, and capacity surge response
