Description

　　Amazon’s Supply Chain Managers play a central role in our global business. They keep our complex, international supply chains working seamlessly and efficiently. As a Principal Supply Chain Development Manager (SCM), you will work closely with multiple stakeholders across Amazon, from Operational teams who are fulfilling customer orders to Retail teams and everything in between. You’ll help us optimise our supply chains to make our customer experience even better and our business more energy and cost efficient.

　　Key job responsibilities

　　Define supply chain and operating models for various businesses.

　　Analyse and interpret data to improve efficiency across supply chains and multiple operations.

　　Partner with teams to advise on and manage operational challenges.

　　Support the planning and organisation of complex projects.

　　Define data-led approaches to products and ways of working.

　　Resolve business-critical and persistent problems.

　　Actively work to remove bottlenecks. Create scalable mechanisms and best practices. Use network planning knowledge to influence future tools and features enhancement.

　　Communicate and drive long term initiatives, proactively identify gaps and opportunities.

　　A day in the life

　　Being a Principal Supply Chain Manager for Amazon involves lots of problem solving. You’ll work with a number of teams to navigate challenges as and when situations impact our network. You’ll spend time resolving temporary issues and looking at the bigger picture to drive Amazon towards achieving new objectives. This role is both proactive and reactive, and you’ll have the opportunity to help forecast and plan for new projects.

　　As a Principal Supply Chain Manager, you’ll need to help with both on-the-ground tasks and more tactical work. No two days will be the same. You could spend one day helping to define our supply chain and operating models and the next assisting with a site’s resource plan for a busy period. Having so much variety in your role means you’ll be able to learn something new every day.

　　This role is based at one of our European headquarters. There may be flexibility to choose your location or work remotely on occasion.
