Strategy & Ops Lead (delivery Person Acquisition), Uber Eats - [fixed Term Contract]

Uber Uber · Consumer · Sydney, Australia +1 · Operations

Strategy & Ops Lead for Uber Eats focused on courier acquisition and supply growth. This role involves identifying new audiences, optimizing promotional strategies, and improving the onboarding funnel. It requires strong analytical skills, people management, and cross-functional leadership to drive measurable supply outcomes.

What you'd actually do

  1. Own the end-to-end supply acquisition strategy — from top-of-funnel awareness through onboarding completion, activation, and early retention.
  2. Design and execute audience expansion programs that diversify who sees Uber Eats as an earning opportunity, partnering with Marketing on messaging, positioning, and channel strategy.
  3. Optimize acquisition spend by rigorously testing channel performance, eliminating waste, and building frameworks to prove ROI across paid, organic, and referral channels.
  4. Re-engineer the sign-up and onboarding funnel — identify and eliminate friction points with the goal of single-session completion; work with Central Ops and local teams to implement changes at pace.
  5. Lead and develop a high-performing team — set clear goals, coach ICs, and foster a culture of ownership, experimentation, and ruthless prioritisation.
  6. Define and track KPIs — NDIs (new driver/courier sign-ups), funnel conversion rates, cost-per-acquisition, time-to-activate, early churn rates — and report progress to senior leadership.
