[Jobs roundup] Work with B2B marketplace Jumbotail with these openings

Reports suggest the retail industry in India has emerged as one of the most dynamic and fast-paced industries due to the entry of several new players. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), the retail industry is expected to reach $1.1 trillion by 2020.

However, a majority of the retail sector today is unorganised and is made up of the kirana stores. Tapping into the opportunity to organise the sector is Bengaluru-based Jumbotail.

Started in 2015 by Ashish Jhina and S Karthik Venkateswaran, Jumbotail is an online wholesale marketplace for food and grocery, targeted at wholesale buyers. It helps the retailers have an efficient channel of sourcing and selling its products.

The startup today claims to have helped over 25,000 kiranas in getting their inventory right through technology, data science, and design.

At present, Jumbotail is looking for candidates at all levels who are looking to work with some of the smartest minds, driven by a sense of purpose, and who wish to leave a legacy in their respective domains and among their professional fraternity.

If you wish to work for the startup, YourStory lists some job openings for you.
