Driver Operations Manager

At Oda, we develop affordable grocery services to make the logistics of living surprisingly easy. First we built Norway’s leading online grocery store and now, partnered with Mathem in Sweden, we’re on our way to becoming the world’s most effective grocery system, delivering to thousands of Scandinavian doorsteps every week.

As a Driver Operations Manager, you will be responsible for leading and developing the driver organization within Delivery. You manage two Driver Team Leads and their combined team of 35–50 drivers. Your role is to ensure safe, efficient, and high-quality last-mile delivery operations while creating a motivating and engaging work environment.

What you’ll be doing:

• Operational Planning & Execution: Oversee daily dispatch, route adjustments and next-day planning to ensure on-time departures and optimal driver availability.
• Personnel Management & Compliance: Manage the full employee lifecycle in our HCM system, including scheduling, hour approvals, sick leave follow-up, and ensuring alignment with the Working Environment Act.
• Talent Development & Onboarding: Lead the recruitment process and coordinate driver onboarding, training, and performance-based retraining.
• HSE & Facility Standards: Conduct daily HSE rounds and damage assessments to maintain fleet tidiness, cargo safety, and workspace cleanliness.
• Leadership & Escalation: Lead weekly Driver Team Leader meetings and delegate tasks effectively.
