Job Description
Swiggy is hiring a Manager - Warehouse in Bengaluru for a full-time, on-site role. The manager oversees a mid-sized facility, covering receiving, shipping, dispatch, stock control and liquidation. The role also oversees transfers between warehouses and the dark stores (PODs) they supply, including returns. Regional warehouse KPIs are monitored, and corrective action is taken to meet annual operating plan targets.
Cost control is central. The manager is expected to reduce operating costs, lower damage and pilferage in internal movements, negotiate vendor rates and optimise transport routes. Warehouse and logistics spend is tracked against plan. Compliance also matters: the warehouse must meet statutory requirements, which the manager handles alongside quality, compliance and HR colleagues.
People leadership is substantial. The manager leads and develops a core team of 15 to 20 on-roll staff and oversees 500 to 600 blue-collar associates. Working with HR, they run retention programmes that aim to reduce absenteeism and attrition, improving productivity and lowering hiring costs.
Candidates need a graduate degree and four to eight years of warehouse operations experience, including managing an on-roll team of more than 15 people.
