William Shu (Chinese: 許子祥; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Khó͘ Chú-siông, born December 1979) is an American-British businessman, the co-founder and CEO of Deliveroo, an online food delivery company with operations spread across more than 200 cities in 11 countries.

[6][7] Shu worked as the company's first delivery person, delivering food every day for the first eight months in order to understand the customer experience.

[9][10] In February 2016, Orlowski, who had been working as Deliveroo's chief technology officer, left "to spend more time with his wife in Chicago after the birth of their daughter".

[12] Shu received criticism for raising his personal salary to £125,000 a year, a 22.5% increase, amidst a dispute over riders' status and company losses in 2016.

[13][15] Deliveroo was one of many gig workers companies facing legal challenges over the employment model of its delivery riders.
