Executive Assistant to the CEO

Cleveland, OH

Overview

Delivered is a technology-driven company that unlocks capacity by stitching together currently available space for nationwide parcel delivery. Delivered provides high-volume e-retail brands with the ability to connect their customers with their products faster and more cost-efficiently. Additionally, the Delivered visibility layer provides customers customized delivery options that significantly reduce loss, damage, and theft, the things that can make online shopping a real pain. 

Delivered’s customer experience is a world of change. When the parcel leaves a shipper’s dock, Delivered’s technology takes over. Through our sort centers, we put packages on the most efficient path to their destination through our network of middle and last-mile partners resulting in an incredible experience for the shipper and recipient. As a bonus, Delivered’s parcel orchestration process saves up to 70% on greenhouse as we utilize currently available capacity.  

Delivered started as a side project for the founder, Andrew Hurst. Spending nearly 20 years in the logistics industry, Andrew saw firsthand how the industry has changed along with people's purchasing habits. He saw his current customers facing capacity issues, transit delays, and substantial price increases from a few select incumbent carriers. The real problem was that this not only affected the e-retailers, but it also affected the consumer, the buyer… people like him. As a proven entrepreneur, he set out to fix the problem e-retailers face when connecting their customers with their physical products.  

Delivered is currently in the process of building our product for commercialization. With a successfully proven leadership team, Delivered is poised for high growth over the next two years as we rapidly expand our footprint across the US. With nearly 1M packages ready to move on Delivered, we are excited to start delivering for our customers.
