Description
At Amazon, we strive to be Earth’s most customer-centric company, where people can come to find and discover anything they might want to buy online. At Amazon Logistics we are building a world class last mile operation, significantly complimented by Amazon Flex. Amazon Flex works directly with independent contractors – called delivery partners – to make deliveries to our customers. With Amazon Flex, individuals can now be their own boss delivering Amazon packages. Amazon Flex is powered by a mobile app that works in concert with our advanced logistics systems that allows delivery partners to on board, schedule delivery times, guide them through their deliveries with in-app mapping and navigation, and more. The approach and technology are nothing short of disruptive, and promise to challenge traditional approaches, and change the way the industry operates.

They will regularly interact with senior leadership (Director and VPs at a WW level) to drive adoption and change throughout the business, while also understanding and role modelling the importance of the front line business and teams. Candidates must demonstrate a track record for building and leading cross functional projects with internal stakeholders, strategic thinking, and success in all phases of business and team development. This is a highly visible position that will interact at all levels of the Amazon Flex business.
