From the Other Side of the Screen: A Closer Look at the Cocolis Team
11 March 2020
Today is International Startups Day. It’s the perfect opportunity to introduce part of our team. New technologies make the impossible possible, but sometimes they make us forget the people behind the screen. So here’s a glimpse of the women and men who work every day to help us make co-transporting parcels a habit.
Margaux: In Touch with Our Users
For Cocolis, putting people at the heart of delivery is essential. Service is therefore one of the founders’ top priorities (Eliette Vincent and Julien Lardé). That’s why several people answer a huge number of questions and requests from our community members directly — these are our account managers. Among them is Margaux, who recently joined us. Her mission? To make the Cocolis experience as pleasant as possible for users. So, if you have a question or encounter a problem, Margaux is one of the people you might talk to.
This daily and direct contact with members allows Cocolis to always know the strengths and areas for improvement of the platform.
Antoine: Striving for the Best User Experience
“What I love about my job is constantly searching for ways to improve our platform and make life easier for users.” — Antoine, UX Design Project Manager at Cocolis
Antoine is part of the product team. His role? To constantly improve the platform so that its features and usability, on both desktop and mobile, best meet users’ needs and current technical possibilities. The modernity and ease of use of the new platform are the result of this team’s work in cooperation with the technical team.
Juliette: One Step Further for the Circular Economy
Bridging the sales and product teams, Juliette is Cocolis’ Swiss Army knife. As a business developer, her main mission is to gather and define client needs — on the shipping side — and also to recruit them. Many antique dealers and second-hand businesses use Cocolis as a delivery solution. The platform offers them an economical and ecological way to ship goods, in line with their values. It’s thanks to Juliette’s work that Cocolis is THE partner for the circular economy.
Bruno: So Transporters Never Drive Empty Again
While Juliette’s work is mainly focused on shippers, Bruno’s is on the transporter side. As a business developer, his job is to contact transport companies directly and convince them to use Cocolis instead of driving empty on their return trips. In 2016, one in three trucks on the road was empty. And what’s better than a truck to transport bulky furniture?
The Cocolis team is made up of many other passionate people, each dedicated to their own mission. If you’d like to join us and help drive the change we’re building in goods mobility, send your CV and a cover letter to [email protected].
