Description

　　Passionate about solving complex problems + piecing together a 200 piece puzzle in an ambiguous environment with changes in puzzle piece size while you build? If so, join us as the US leader of New Store Launch Strategy.

　　Interested in working on an innovative and high-impact business that is changing the way customers think about grocery? Amazon is looking for a bright, customer obsessed, and motivated individual to join the Amazon Fresh team.

　　Amazon Fresh is a grocery store designed from the ground up to offer a seamless grocery shopping experience, whether customers are shopping in store or online. We’ve also introduced new ways to make grocery shopping more convenient using Amazon Dash Cart technology, which enables customers to skip the checkout line, and launched a new Alexa feature that help customers manage their shopping lists and better navigate our aisles.

　　We’re looking for an exceptionally motivated and talented Program Manager with strong customer focus, analytical skills, and an entrepreneurial spirit to join the central category selection and merchandising team. You will help execute, and deliver on detailed plans by store on which planograms should be set in each store across center store, perimeter and promotions/endcaps. You will need to thrive and deliver results in an ambiguous, and fast-paced business environment, operating across multiple teams and levels in the organization.

　　The ideal candidate will have strong customer experience intuition, business and product sense combined with solid understanding of critical milestones and how to manage consistent changes to work orders and potentially conflicting priorities. You must be able to thrive and succeed in an entrepreneurial environment, and not be hindered by ambiguity or competing priorities. High judgment, ability to influence, analytical talent, exceptional communications, and leadership are essential to success in this role.

　　This role will be responsible for:

　　Developing a robust store level execution plan by subcategory – for each new store: will it reset with the last or upcoming work orders for each category; how will we handle seasonal/clearance aisle/endcaps, etc.

　　Partner with Category Merchandising Program Managers and Promotions Quality PMs to create a plan of record that can be utilized by merchandisers and Operations to track what work orders should be executed by store.

　　Ensuring that the created (by this person) source of the truth for DBKey (unique planogram identifier) is up to date and completed on-time

　　Developing go/no go criteria and escalation points for making decisions and balancing the tradeoffs if we use current v. upcoming plangoram.

　　Key job responsibilities

　　-Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders on developing framework, tenets and criteria to determine which DBKey and version of planogram that should be used

　　-Develop and ensure population of a source of the trust for each store that outlines what DBKey and work order version should be used for launch (+ plans to update/reconcile a store if they don't launch with the most up to date planogram)

　　-Partner with other Selection team PMs to ensure critical steps and milestones are covered in workback schedule and tracked accordingly

　　A day in the life

　　Work across category and central teams to develop a detail oriented plan for selection at launch. Identify potential risks to on-time delivery and providing tradeoff and solutions to overcome any challenges/delays.

　　A fun-filled (genuinely enjoy working together) team of program and product managers who are responsible for the selection and merchandising planning and execution.
