About the Company
At Workwize, we’re revolutionizing how businesses support their global teams. The rise of a global workforce has enabled companies to access a broader talent pool but has also brought logistical challenges, such as local vendor availability, timely laptop delivery, equipment management, and secure retrieval and storage. Workwize’s SaaS platform, integrated with suppliers and warehouses worldwide, simplifies and automates the deployment, management, and retrieval of IT hardware for distributed teams.
Today, Workwize supports operations in 100+ countries, manages 100,000+ devices, and enables seamless IT lifecycle management for 25,000+ users globally. As we continue to scale, improving the reliability and experience of our retrieval service is a key priority.

About the Role
We are looking for an Operations Specialist – Retrievals (M&D) to join our Retrievals & Warehousing team. This is a Level 2 (L2) role, focused on driving operational excellence through project-based work across the retrievals service.
The primary objective of this role is simple but impactful: continually refining processes so all assets are retrieved within the desired timeframe and experience is frictionless for customers.
To achieve this, you will own and drive multiple improvement initiatives in parallel, embedding yourself deeply within the Retrievals team and working cross-functionally with other Service Operations teams, Technology, and external partners where needed. This role is well suited to someone who thrives in ambiguity, takes ownership end-to-end, and is energized by turning complex, operational challenges into scalable solutions.

Responsibilities
Operational Excellence & Project Ownership
  • Own and drive two concurrent improvement projects within the retrievals service, from problem definition through execution and measurable impact.
  • Identify root causes behind retrieval delays, escalations, and inefficiencies, and design pragmatic solutions to address them.
  • Take full ownership of initiatives, proactively communicating progress, risks, and outcomes to stakeholders.
Retrievals Performance Improvement
  • Drive improvements to key retrieval metrics, with a focus on increasing SLA adherence and reducing support ticket volume.
  • Partner closely with Warehousing, Delivery, and M&D teams to improve handoffs, processes, and accountability.
  • Support continuous improvement as retrieval volumes scale globally.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
  • Work closely with Technology, Service Operations, and other internal teams to implement operational improvements.
  • Engage with clients or partners as required when escalations or complex retrieval scenarios arise.
  • Gather input and alignment from relevant stakeholders, incorporating feedback into solutions.
Data-Driven Execution
  • Use data to diagnose issues, prioritize initiatives, and measure impact.
  • Track performance before and after changes to ensure improvements are sustainable and scalable.

Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Operations, Business, Logistics, or a related field.
  • ~2 years of experience in operations, project-based roles, or service environments is a plus, but not a strict requirement.
  • More important than experience is how you approach problems, communicate, and take ownership.

Required Skills
  • Strong structured thinking and problem-solving ability.
  • Comfortable operating in ambiguous environments and refining problems as you go.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously without losing momentum.
  • Clear and proactive communicator, able to surface risks and provide updates without being prompted.
  • Data-driven mindset — using metrics to guide decisions and validate outcomes.
  • Strong ownership mentality: you see problems through end-to-end rather than stopping at handoffs.

Preferred Skills
  • Experience in operations, service delivery, logistics, or scaling operational processes.
  • Exposure to working with cross-functional teams in fast-growing environments.
  • Familiarity with service metrics, SLAs, or operational dashboards.

Why Join Workwize
  • Opportunity to own and shape a critical service line as it scales globally.
  • High-impact role with clear metrics tied to success.
  • Fast-moving, ambitious environment that values ownership, learning, and pragmatism over perfection.
  • A culture that encourages questioning the status quo and continuously improving how we operate.

  • Flexible hybrid work environment.
  • Top-notch tools and equipment provided.
  • Entrepreneurial culture with room to grow as an individual contributor and beyond.
