What are the responsibilities and job description for the Commercial Sales Manager position at Peddler?
About Peddler
Peddler is building the next generation of urban delivery.
We operate a fast-growing, fully electric last-mile logistics network built for modern cities and modern commerce. As traditional delivery models come under pressure from rising costs, stricter city regulations, and growing demand for speed and flexibility, we are building the infrastructure that retailers, brands, and e-commerce platforms need.
From our urban hubs, we help leading retail chains, globally recognised brands, and high-growth commercial partners move goods through cities faster, cleaner, and more efficiently. We combine urban hubs, electric fleets, and technology-driven logistics to move goods through cities faster, cleaner, and more efficiently.
Joining Peddler means joining a company with real growth ambitions in a market that is ripe for disruption. This is an opportunity to help shape the future of urban logistics, not just work around the edges of it.
