Ilir Sela started Slice with the belief that local pizzerias deserve all of the advantages of major franchises without compromising their independence. Starting with his family’s pizzerias, we now empower over tens of thousands of restaurants with the technology, services, and collective power that owners need to better serve their digitally minded customers and build lasting businesses. We’re growing and adding more talent to help fulfill this valuable mission. That’s where you come in.
The Challenge to Solve
Buying affordable, high quality supplies is one of the biggest challenges facing local independent restaurants today; they pay higher prices than franchises and often must use outdated systems to place & receive their orders. Slice’s "The Goods" seeks to solve this challenge by empowering local pizzeria owners to order high-quality supplies at unmatched prices, on demand, in just a few clicks.
The Role
The Head Logistics position for ‘The Goods’ is an imperative role to the business as we grow and require someone who is both pragmatic and a strategic thinker. You will design how our warehouses and fulfillments will operate with considerations around promoting and driving a safety culture, efficiency, profitability and ultimately shop satisfaction. The ability to cultivate relationships both with the team and our shop owners will also be key to the success of this role.
Other Areas Of The Role Will Be
The Supply Chain team (AKA The Goods) includes our VP, Supply Chain and a collaborative group working in specific territories throughout the East Coast. You will also collaborate with local pizzeria and restaurant owners to understand their needs and demonstrate how Slice can help their business. You will be a key member of Slice’s growing ‘The Goods’ team and report to Slice’s VP, Supply Chain.
The Winning Recipe
The Extras
Working at Slice comes with a comprehensive set of benefits, but here are some of the unexpected highlights:
Flexible PTO
Market leading medical, vision and dental insurance
401K matching up to 4%
Wellness reimbursement/stipend
Weekly pizza stipend (Yes, that’s a thing!)
The Hiring Process
Here’s what we expect the hiring process for this role to be, should all go well with your candidacy. This entire process is expected to take 1-2 weeks to complete and you’d be expected to start on a specific date.
Salary range: $160-220k + bonus + equity + benefits
