Helping to build the future of Uber Eats

The Uber Eats Advisory Forums are comprised of a group of delivery people who represent their community and help shape the future of Uber Eats for Aussies. 

The first Uber Eats Advisory Forum in Australia was held in June 2021. This year, it will be held in October 2023. 

How it works

Advisors are asked to participate in 4 forums over 2 years which will involve meeting with members of the Uber Eats operations and leadership teams.

The Advisory Forums will take place twice in each year. The role of an advisor is to give feedback, share ideas for solutions and advocate for the interests of their fellow delivery people.

Advisors will inform what issues and topics are discussed – to make sure we’re working on the things that matter most to you.

How advisors are selected

The Advisory Forums are facilitated by independent agency RPS, a leader in running engagement programs. RPS selects advisors from those who expressed interest with a goal of reflecting the diverse community of delivery people.

Represent your community – Express your interest now!

If you have ideas on how to improve the platform and want to represent your fellow delivery people, we hope that you’ll express your interest to be an Advisor. 

Advisors will receive a gift card from RPS as a thank you for their time and effort in preparing for and participating in the Advisory Forums and related activities.
Expressions of interest close at 11:45 pm AEST on 11 April 2023.

Frequently asked questions

    • Twice a year, Advisors will meet with members of our Uber operations and leadership teams to give feedback, share their ideas for solutions and advocate for the interests of their fellow driver-partners.
    • RPS will ask Advisors to complete some preparation work ahead of each forum and to make an effort to engage with their driver-partner community so they can represent their voices.
    • Advisors should be willing to participate in the forum twice a year. They will be compensated by RPS for participating in the forum.
    • Advisors will be required to participate in the forum twice a year. Each forum should run for approximately 5 hours (excluding breaks). RPS will ask Advisors to complete a little less than 10 hours of preparation work (including keeping an ear out for feedback from other driver-partners).
    • Before the forums kick off, Advisors will need to spend a few hours getting familiar with the forum set up and responsibilities.
    • Yes, advisors are expected to attend the first in-person Advisory Forum in Sydney where travel may be required in June 2023. Advisors may also need to travel for future Advisory Forums as well.
    • Reasonable travel costs including flights and accommodation will be covered.
    • Some Advisory Forums will be held virtually (via Zoom). RPS will make sure that you are familiar with Zoom, so don’t worry if you haven’t used it before.
  • It’s important that advisors have a sufficient level of familiarity with the Uber Eatsplatform in order to participate in the Advisory Forums. Therefore, to be eligible for selection, applicants must meet the below criteria at the point of registration:

    • Have completed at least 500 deliveries if a delivery person
    • Have completed a delivery in the last 90 days

    RPS will then select advisors from the applicants who meet these criteria.

    • You will be contacted by RPS in April 2023.
    • If you miss out on being an advisor for 2023 - 2024, you may still be on the advisor waitlist and you will always have the opportunity to express your interest again in 2025 when we open up expressions of interest for the next set of Advisory Forums! Furthermore, there are other ways for you to share your feedback for the Advisory Forums. Stay tuned for further communications in the Have Your Say Survey in the lead up to the first Advisory Forum, and Open Hours later in the year.
