Description
Join our diverse and dynamic team as we make history! As a Program Manager within External Fulfillment (EF), you will have the opportunity to lead the origin and rapid expansion of our EF Program. This program’s mission is to offer flexible fulfillment solutions for Amazon’ sellers and vendors outside of our Fulfillment Center (FC) network leveraging world wide tool-set built for quick deployment.
You will own the integration delivery of 3PL operations and other cross-functional projects within Amazon EF services. In taking this role, you will be supporting the analysis of new opportunities, creating project plans, designing and re-inventing processes, driving execution across teams (Supply Chain, Transportation, Technology Retail etc.), and communicating on status, key metrics, risks and process/product changes. You’ll have a high sense of ownership, accountability and be ready to deep dive into the processes, numbers and tech. The role may require you to be flexible with hours to accommodate vendor schedules and regional meetings, and to travel locally and nationally to sites for launch, set up and monitor operations.
In the broader team, you will have a holistic view of supply chain within the Amazon fulfillment network and be an integral part in creating and implementing large-scale strategic initiatives in network optimisation, delivery speed, transportation cost, labour capacity management and more. There will rarely be a perfect solution, so it will be up to you to make data driven decisions and manage stakeholder relationships while planning and executing within an ever-changing environment. Every decision we make has a direct impact on our customer’s experience!
