Description

　　Amazon’s European Transportation Network Design team is responsible for getting Amazon packages to customers more reliably, faster, cheaper, and with a lower carbon intensity, while managing to grow the shipped volume by double digits every year.

　　As a Program Manager for Network Design, you'll lead programs driving strategic initiatives and solving recurring problems around delivery quality, speed, cost and carbon intensity of the Amazon Transportation network. The scale of the impact you’ll have will be on the whole European Amazon network and lasting in time. Your goal is not just to solve problems once, but also to build new tools and improve processes to make sure the problems stay solved. This is essential to the scalability of the Amazon Transportation Network.

　　You are data-driven and enjoy analyzing large quantities of data and turning them into crisp insights

　　You are an excellent problem solver, with a demonstrated ability to bring structure to complex projects and break them down into smaller pieces

　　You are able to deliver projects against tight deadlines and are comfortable with competing priorities.

　　You get energy from finding root causes for recurring problems and inventing new tools and processes to avoid them.

　　You are eager to learn about the complexities of Amazon's transportation network and the systems that support it. At the same time, you have the communication skills to explain this to someone without subject matter expertise.

　　You are able to coordinate multiple cross-functional projects in parallel across Tech, Operations, Supply Chain and Finance.

　　You have a drive to constantly learn and improve yourself

　　You can translate strategic directions into a project roadmap and build the resourcing plan to deliver on this roadmap

　　Then this is a role for you! We're looking forward to your application.
