At Uber, we take pride in our diversity and working environment that sees you as more than just a person that can do the job, but a unique individual that can level up our organization with a perspective only you can offer.
Uber provides a truly open culture that encourages all to voice their thoughts.About the Team
Since 2020, Delivery at Uber has grown tremendously on the back of increased demand caused by the pandemic; at the same time as we have expanded into new use cases and verticals like Grocery, Alcohol, Pick-up and more.
Merchants across all categories have also increased their investment and interest in their own digital and delivery channels.Without having their own on-demand logistics capability, merchants are looking for a partner who can fulfil the requirement for last-mile delivery.
With millions of couriers providing on-demand logistics through our existing marketplaces around the world, Uber Direct is a product that allows all merchants, who want to leverage a vast network of delivery partners, to do so and fulfill the on-demand last-mile delivery service for orders on their own app and websites.
Uber Direct has the potential to be our next multi-billion dollar business and is an important requirement for our existing marketplace partners.
