Default job background

Description

Every position at Amazon offers the opportunity for employees to influence business decisions and shape the future. But as a Senior Programme Manager, pioneering new ways of thinking, designing and delivering is your mission. You'll conduct your own research and analysis, always with an eye on the long-term vision of the business.

This is your opportunity to have a big impact on some of the most exciting new ideas that are shaping the future of Amazon.

Create innovative solutions using data and research to address wider challenges in your organisation

Take a bigpicture approach in your analysis of business operations, driving improvements across a range of teams and organisations
Work alongside senior leadership to establish and prioritise improvement programmes, seeing them through from start to finish
Enhance operational performance on every programme in partnership with your stakeholders

As Senior Programme Manager, you'll drive and manage the implementation of creative, data-driven change in Amazon, leading improvement projects and programmes.

You'll use strategic thinking to define and implement an efficient project plan.

Some managers are based on-site while others work remotely, depending on the most suitable option for their team and tasks.

Senior Programme Managers have significant responsibilities, and you'll deal with complex challenges with creativity, innovation, and leadership.

With a responsibility extending beyond process improvements, you could also contribute to improving other areas of the business, like diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Amazon Extra Large (AMXL) looks after heavy items like furniture and large home appliances.

While those of us who work in delivery stations will do some night shifts, most of us work during the day.

Our team is made up of people across operations, supply chain, business intelligence and programme management, and everyone plays a crucial role in growing this part of the business.
