Job Description

​DESCRIPTION

Amazon Vendor Services (AVS) is looking for a Program Manager to join our new Specialised Services team as an Excellence Consultant.

The ideal candidate will be a generalist, who is as comfortable analyzing data as they are using insights gleaned from this data to influence senior stakeholders at Amazon and our biggest Retail vendors. This candidate would also have strong project management skills, and an aptitude for building something new in an ambiguous environment.

- Organise and run workshops with internal and external attendees to understand vendors’ business objectives and demonstrate how Amazon can support these. Lead group discussions, process mapping, value stream mapping and brain storming sessions.
- Work on cross-functional projects with internal stakeholders related to the improvement and growth of the service (e.g. expanding the value proposition, facilitating pitching and vendor outreach, increasing team productivity).
- Some traveling within AU is required for this role
