Whether you're analysing several months of fulfilment data, coaching your team on effective techniques, allocating time for special requests, or implementing technology driven solutions - you're the glue holding the ship together and the propulsive wind in its sails.
Our question is: if you were in our shoes, would you hire yourself?
