About the job
Relay is revolutionizing the way goods are transported in the digital age. With the backing of Europe’s largest logistics Series A funding round ($35M) led by innovative deep-tech investors at Plural (known for their investments in fusion energy and space exploration), Relay is experiencing unprecedented growth, outpacing 99.98% of venture-funded startups. We are building the most talented team in the logistics sector.
Our Mission is to eliminate friction in commerce. The high costs associated with delivery currently function as a hidden tax on e-commerce, restricting what can be sold online and who can engage in the marketplace. Our vision is to create a world where goods flow freely among people, enhancing the online shopping experience and making it accessible to everyone.
About the Team
• A dynamic team of approximately 110 professionals, with more than 50% in engineering, product, and data
• Over 45 advanced degrees in fields such as computer science, mathematics, and operations research
• We gather and analyze thousands of data points for every parcel we manage
• A culture that thrives on first-principles thinking, rapid feedback, and continuous experimentation
Our Vision
Our objective is to remove barriers in commerce. Delivery should feel seamless—where free shipping is the norm and logistical obstacles fade from consumers' minds.
In this envisioned future:
Consumers perceive delivery as invisible—where logistical challenges are eliminated.
Retailers of all sizes flourish online, whether selling a £5 item or a £500 item, as delivery becomes universally efficient.
Just as the internet has simplified communication, Relay aims to simplify the movement of goods, fostering new opportunities for both merchants and consumers.
The Opportunity
We are seeking a Senior Associate in Strategic Finance to join Relay’s Finance team. You will collaborate closely with senior leaders, including the CFO and CCO, playing a crucial role in preparing Relay for a significant Series B funding round in 2026 while enhancing the analytical and operational framework of the organization.
