About Bolt

From ride-hailing and food delivery to scooters, e-bikes, and car-sharing, Bolt helps people move through cities every day. Small, autonomous teams drive this work, combining the speed and ownership of a startup with the scale of a global technology company backed by more than €1bn in funding.
And we're just getting started.

About The Role

In addition, you’ll be in charge of overseeing the warehouse operations where the e-scooters are stored. This includes managing procurement activities to ensure that mechanics have all the necessary equipment and materials to work efficiently.
