DESCRIPTION

Amazon is seeking an experienced Executive Assistant to support the General Manager and Automotive Directors in AWS Industry Products (AIP). We are a global organization building software to transform industries and make the world a better place. We are looking for an exceptionally bright, multitasking and self-motivated individual to be a key member of the business leadership team.

This role requires superior attention to detail, the ability to organize and prioritize critical deliverables in a fast paced and changing environment, and the ability to juggle multiple competing requests. The right candidate for this role will possess strong written and verbal communication skills and be customer obsessed, enabling them to represent Amazon when interacting with Fortune 500 senior executives. A high level of integrity and discretion in handling confidential information is critical for success in this role, as is a good sense humor. We like to have fun!

A successful candidate will possess the ability to complete complex tasks and projects quickly with little to no guidance, react with appropriate urgency to situations that require a quick turnaround, be creative in finding solutions, and take effective action without having to know the total picture.

• Working closely with the leadership team, partner teams, and other Executive Assistants to provide support to the organization
• Occasional travel for off-sites or trainings
• Managing domestic and international travel
• Driving a vibrant and engaging organizational culture

A day in the life
