DESCRIPTION

Are you interested in creating the future of e-commerce shipping? Our team is changing the way we interact with customers around the globe and building a new, emerging shipping business to solve some of the biggest logistical opportunities facing not just Amazon, but the entire industry.

Amazon Shipping is looking to hire a data-driven, customer-obsessed, and visionary Senior Manager to lead the new Shipper Management function within Amazon Shipping. In starting-up this team, you will develop policies, products, and processes that focus on giving our shipping customers feedback mechanisms that improve their experience, cost, and quality with our service. As a Senior Manager, you will lead and grow a dynamic and complex space that links our customers, our business, operations, and our support teams together, holding a high bar with regard to customer obsession and operational performance.

As a leader of this new function, you will play a lead role in defining and refining standards across a range of shipping functions that we will relay back to shippers through the creation of easy-to-consume shipper analytics. You will create and manage the implementation of a shipper scorecard product that will become a primary customer-facing tool for shippers to interact with Amazon and manage their logistics. You will develop a carrots-and-sticks methodology to motivate shippers to manage their inputs and move package volume to Amazon. You will manage the data streams, publishing, and communication associated with the scorecard and analytics package. Lastly, you will establish the product in the US and roll it out to other geographies once you’ve established adoption, fit, and finish.

Key job responsibilities
