Head of Operations (Singapore) — Rida
Rida is building an AI powered platform that orchestrates complex, SOP-driven deliveries for enterprises (healthcare, F&B, and beyond). We combine autonomous AI agents, route optimization, WhatsApp-based workflows, custom driver fleets, and human in the loop support to scale complex deliveries.
The role
You’ll be Rida’s Ops owner : turn client SOPs into repeatable execution, keep SLAs green, and scale a hybrid (on-site + offshore) team. You’ll dive into the data, jump on the floor when needed, and partner closely with Product / Engineering to drive automation and process optimization.
What you’ll do
- Own client operations & service excellence — codify and continuously refine SOPs; ensure SLAs are consistently achieved; run smooth, documented client onboarding and steady-state service.
- Lead and execute — manage Ops teams to KPIs, and step in personally to unblock issues when the situation calls for it.
- Run fleet & driver performance — grow and optimise fleets for productivity and profitability; uphold driver standards; support contractor / driver agreement reviews.
- Be data-driven — build / own dashboards, instrument the funnel, and use insights to improve on-time rates, utilisation, and cost per drop.
- Improve margins & scope — understand cost / profit drivers, tighten operations, and identify upsell / expansion opportunities with existing customers.
- Partner with Product / Eng — turn frontline pain points into actionable requirements; champion automation and clean data flows.
- Hire, coach, and set culture — build a high-accountability team and training playbooks; manage and scale offshore back-office functions.
- Handle start-up extras — ensure compliance (PDPA / WSH / sector SOPs), assist with customer / contractor agreement reviews, and support GTM and upsell when needed.
What success looks like (first 3–6 months)
A live SOP library + QA loop for top accounts; clear playbooks for incident management.Ops dashboarding in place (on-time %, first-attempt success, driver utilisation, cost per drop) with weekly cadence and actions.Fleet productivity up; fewer escalations; smoother handoffs with Product / Eng from a steady backlog of automation wins.What you bring
Ops leadership (3+ years) in logistics, tech-enabled services, or marketplace ops; you’ve run SLAs, not just reported them.Analytical chops — strong Excel / Google Sheets; comfort with metrics and funnel thinking; SQL is a plus but not necessary.People & comms — clear decisions, crisp writing, and a calm presence in live ops.Financial sense — understanding of unit economics, budgets, and how process changes move margin.Compliance mindset — you respect regulated workflows and secure data handling in day-to-day ops.What We Offer
