Roles and Responsibilities:

The role of the city team is primarily vendor management for smooth city operations.

Vendor onboarding: Search and speak to Packers and Movers vendors ,spot partners and local supply. Explain about our platform, understand their capabilities and onboard those who fulfill our criteria.
Vendor training: Once the vendor is onboarded, train the vendor's team about Porter standards. Training would also be required for old vendors from time to time.

Nonperforming vendors need to be terminated.
Vendor allocation and Order fulfillment: Allocate vendors to customer orders.
Escalation handling: Handle any escalations related to orders and resolve them.
Suggest ways to improve the service/business.
Ownership: Setting up a new business requires taking very high ownership and hard work.
Comfortable with change: Open to trying new things.
Communication: Comfortable in communicating with vendors in a patient and respectful manner.
Process Oriented: For the business to scale, we need to follow the processes
Aptitude: Comfortable with understanding the vendor economics and doing basic calculations required.
