Total cash: €36,830 - €46,835 The Position At Hive, we're building the most customer-centric operations platform in Europe, and our Merchant Care team is at the heart of that mission. As a Merchant Care Associate On the Ground , you'll be the first point of contact for our merchants' operational issues directly from the fulfillment center . You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with our logistics partner's floor teams, spot issues before they escalate, and close the loop between what's happening on the warehouse floor and our merchants.

You'll be on-site in Pavia , Italy part of Hive's Merchant Care team, and the bridge between the fulfillment center operations, Hive's office-based specialists, and our merchants.

What You'Ll Do

Be the go-to Merchant Care contact at the fulfillment center: resolve issues that need a pair of eyes on the floor (missing items, inventory discrepancies, packaging questions, returns edge-cases). Own the support tickets (Zendesk) routed directly to the fulfillment center queue — investigate, action, and resolve. Partner daily with the logistics partner Team and our Spec Ops — join their stand-ups, build trust, unblock.

Spot inefficiencies and proactively improve Merchant Care processes as we scale the on-site model. Act as the voice of the merchant in cross-functional discussions with Product, Operations and Tech. Bring data into every decision, Metabase, Notion, Asana, Zendesk and Claude are your daily tools.

Start focused on Inventory / inbound, and broaden to Freight, B2B and Outbound after the first few months: becoming the on-site go-to for multiple Merchant Care topics at your fulfillment center. Your Profile We are looking for someone with: Experience: 1–3 years in Operations, Customer Support, SaaS, or logistics / third-party fulfillment. Bonus if you've worked in or near a warehouse.

Languages: fluent in English , plus Italian (C2 or Native level) Mindset : hands-on, solution-oriented mindset with a bias for action and a strong sense of ownership. We know, sometimes you won't tick every box. We'd still love to hear from you if you think you're a good fit.

We already reach tens of millions of consumers a year and power 600+ independent brands, and we're just getting started. Work with exceptional people: a high-performing, ambitious team, many from McKinsey, Amazon, Shopify, Google, TikTok, and Trade Republic.

Grow with Hive: own impactful projects from day one and grow as we scale. We're a meritocracy: your impact drives your progression, not your past titles. Time to recharge: 30 vacation days a year, plus a paid 20-day sabbatical every three years.
