Amazon Shipping is looking to hire a highly organized, customer-obsessed and data-driven Senior Program Manager to join the Shipper Delivery Quality management. Leading this team, you will develop policies, products and processes that focus on improving customer experience by improving the quality of our delivery services. As a Senior Program Manager, you will own and lead a dynamic, versatile and complex space that links our customers, our business and our support partner teams together, holding a high bar with regard to customer obsession and operational performance.

As a Senior Manager in Programme Management, you will play an instrumental role in guiding managers across a range of central functions, from logistics to customer service and beyond, and addressing challenges with high potential for innovation across the business. Your work will make a difference to your organisation as you create solutions to often complex or ambiguous global challenges. From leading a team to implementing long-term plans, you will be an integral part of our future innovation, helping us continually redefine and offer the best customer experience.

A day in the life

As we move forward with our plans, Senior Managers help organise and direct our efforts so that programme milestones and key deliverables are met. You’ll also play an active role in defining scope for complex programmes and initiatives, and you’ll present your analysis and recommendations to Directors and Vice Presidents to inform change at the most senior level.

You’ll manage a team of Programme and Project Managers who will work alongside a variety of tech, operations, and business stakeholders to drive business-critical programmes. You’ll challenge and guide the team to ensure the timely progress and completion of their deliverables, coordinate their efforts, and address a lack of traction or adoption where necessary. You will always be looking to the future and exploring how to create the most value for the business and the customer.
