Company Description

Launched in 2021 with a simple yet bold mission, Flink set out to give people back their most valuable resource: time. We didn't just join the quick commerce race, we defined its potential. By enabling customers to order from a curated selection of over 3,000 groceries and household essentials through our user-centric app, we deliver what people need in minutes. We have fundamentally shifted the retail landscape across Germany and the Netherlands, while embedding sustainability into our core through an all-electric delivery fleet, recyclable packaging, and a focus on reducing food waste.

Today, Flink has evolved from a disruptive startup into a resilient and sustainable powerhouse. In an industry defined by rapid change, we’ve mastered the balance of hyper-efficiency and massive scale. With a network of around 160 hubs, we now bring the Flink experience to more than 22 million people, making us an integral part of the urban infrastructure. This impact is driven by a dedicated team of more than 10,000 colleagues, including a fully employed rider fleet that serves as the backbone of our operations. By generating over €550m in revenue in 2025, we have proven that our model is not only desirable but financially formidable.

Having built a proven foundation, we are now shifting from establishing our presence to accelerating our impact. Backed by prestigious partners like Prosus, Mubadala, Bond, DoorDash, Btomorrow Ventures and REWE, and fueled by fresh investment, we are entering our next major growth phase. We are thinking bigger, expanding our footprint, and refining every link in our value chain.

Our culture is defined by a shared bias for action and the commitment to being 1% better every day. We take ownership, stay close to the frontline, and support one another to ensure we never let another Flinker fail. We celebrate diversity and believe that our multicultural team is our greatest competitive advantage.

Are you ready to shape the future of quick commerce with us?

Job Description

• Own Projects End-to-End: Take full responsibility for your initiatives - from scoping and data extraction to model-building, stakeholder alignment, and final rollout within the Ops team. You define the roadmap and drive it to completion.
• Lead Stakeholder Communication: Be the connective tissue between data and decision-making. You will structure and lead regular business reviews with Operations Managers and senior leadership, translating complex analyses into clear narratives and concrete recommendations.
• Drive Partner Performance Reviews: Own the cadence of performance reviews with internal and external partners. You don't just present numbers - you frame the conversation, address service-level gaps, and hold the room accountable for follow-through.
• Scale with AI & Automation: Develop services and leverage AI-driven workflows to eliminate manual reporting and scale operational processes - with a clear eye on where automation creates the most leverage.
• Deep-Dive Analysis: Use BigQuery (SQL) to navigate complex operational datasets and uncover the "why" behind inefficiencies. Your analysis is the foundation every project is built on.
• Empower with Data: Build and maintain high-impact dashboards and ad-hoc reports that give Operations Managers the intelligence they need to run hubs effectively.

Qualifications

• Project Management Mindset: You are comfortable owning a project from first principles to final delivery. You set timelines, manage expectations, and communicate proactively - without needing to be asked.
• Strong Communicator: You can walk a Hub Manager and a C-level executive through the same analysis and make both feel informed and confident. Written, verbal, and visual - your communication is always purposeful.
• Analytical Rigor: Currently pursuing a degree in a quantitative field (Mathematics, Statistics, Business Analytics) with a strong foundation in BigQuery (SQL) and Python (Pandas, NumPy) for analysis, visualization, and automation.
• Statistical Curiosity: A genuine interest in statistical testing and the ability to interpret results in a way that drives real business decisions - not just academic conclusions.
• Business Acumen: You connect a line of code to a real-world outcome. Good analysis, in your mind, is analysis that leads to faster decisions and better operations.
• Ownership: You proactively identify gaps and opportunities. You don't wait for a task list - you build one
