About The Role
The UK Driver Ops team's goal is to ensure that drivers in the UK are attracted to the Uber value proposition, are actively engaged and earning with Uber, and have access to all the relevant tools to succeed. In light of competition and challenging licensing processes for private-hire drivers, this is not always an easy and straightforward task, and maintaining brand reference and loyalty is fundamental to the growth of the business.
The role will focus on driving our union relations strategy in partnership with the Policy team, as well as leading strategic efforts to help do the right thing for drivers, with specific focus on deactivations and waitlisting.
This role will lead the ongoing management of partnership with the GMB union, including hosting quarterly consultation meetings, shaping communication plans internally and externally, guiding the business around key areas of focus based on member feedback, as well as strategic guidance on casework processes. As with almost any role at Uber, the role will be flexible depending on the business priorities.
What You'll Do
- Create and maintain a successful Union relations strategy - set the direction for the union relationship, set clear targets and success criteria, monitor industry trends and circulate insights and learnings internally.
- Build and maintain strong internal and external relationships with relevant stakeholders to ensure continued buy-in, keeping representatives up to date on progress, creating and delivering clear and insightful presentations and, at times, handling challenging questions and discussions.
- Planning, preparation and management of quarterly JCNF meetings with GMB, ongoing actioning of GMB member feedback, driving accountability around issues pertinent to GMB and the broader driver base.
- Be the primary owner for the Driver Actioning (waitlisting and deactivations) strategy for the UK, working closely with existing stakeholders from COE, Comm Ops and Safety to continue to build on fairness and transparency improvements for drivers from waitlisting through to deactivation. Help improve internal awareness on key supporting data and identify areas for further improvement on key KPIs.
- Wider driver engagement activities (roundtables, driver support, CRM and communication) that help shape future projects and bolster plans.
- Lead key product launches - support on feature deployment, communication planning, value proposition for drivers - for example, new features related to driver fairness and actioning.
