About the team
Operations sits at the heart of the Amazon customer experience.

We look after everything from the moment a customer clicks buy, to the moment their item is delivered - from desktop to doorstep.

Across Europe we have more than 50 fulfilment centres, hundreds of delivery stations, thousands of machines, and tens of thousands of employees, all working together in harmony to make sure the right item gets delivered to the right person, in the right place, at the right time.

In our buildings, millions of items are picked and packed by our employees every year.

And on the road, our teams and partners work hard to make sure we get our customers what they want, when they want, wherever they are.

We put the safety of our people above everything else, working in a modern, engaging environment as part of a team that welcomes individuality and diversity.

The culture in our Operation is built on the way our teams bond and a work ethic that helps our business run like clockwork.
