Key responsibilities

1. Lead the team and build SOP discipline

• Lead a team of 7-9 people, currently 4 customer Key Account Managers (KAMs) and 3 operations

executives, with team size varying by business requirements. Coach the team, set clear responsibilities

and daily priorities, and review performance regularly.

• Create and implement standard operating procedures (SOPs), escalation paths and checklists. Train the

team, check adherence and build accountability for shipment follow-ups, customer updates and issue

closure. Fix recurring gaps rather than relying on individual follow-ups.

2. Own customer retention and account growth

• Take operational ownership of customers after the sales handover. Understand service requirements,

maintain proactive communication and build strong working relationships with customer teams and

leadership.

• Lead service recovery for at-risk accounts, address repeat complaints and follow through on corrective

actions. Work with sales to retain customers and expand business within existing accounts through

consistent service.

3. Manage vendor relationships and commercials

• Identify, onboard and manage PTL and courier vendors. Negotiate competitive pricing and service terms,

review performance against agreed SLAs and address service gaps with local, regional and senior vendor

teams.

• Use established industry relationships to manage daily escalations and secure practical support from

vendors such as Gati, Delhivery, Ekart, V-Xpress, Rivigo and Safe express etc.

4. Lead daily execution and escalation resolution

• Oversee first-mile, mid-mile and last-mile execution, from pickup through delivery confirmation. Act as

the senior escalation point for delayed pickups, transit delays, failed deliveries and other shipment issues;

drive urgent cases to closure with timely customer updates.

• Own appointment-based deliveries, including Quick Commerce and Modern Trade warehouse

requirements. Manage slot coordination, documentation and e-way bill compliance, and take timely action

to prevent missed appointments.

communication.

6. Improve systems, reporting and service performance

• Become proficient in the internal operations portal and ensure accurate, timely data and team adoption.

team.

• Use Excel/Google Sheets and operational reports to track team and vendor performance, delivery

reliability, appointment adherence, escalation closure, customer retention and costs. Identify root causes

and drive corrective action.

7. Control vendor billing and claims

• Check vendor and courier invoices for discrepancies against agreed rates, shipments and service terms,

and ensure errors are raised and corrected before payment.

• Ensure damage and shortage reconciliation and credit notes are obtained from couriers in a timely manner.

Make this a standard part of the team's SOP culture, with clear ownership, follow-up and closure tracking.

Non-Negotiable Experience and capabilities
