We'd love to have you join one of the world’s most customer centric companies. At Amazon, our continuing growth means that we must constantly innovate in order to deliver continuous improvement in performance quality, reliability, and cost and keep our world-class service running smoothly. We’re growing our business across Europe and our teams are expanding to support this growth.

We are looking for a passionate, results-orientated, leader able to drive business change in a complex environment with multiple senior stakeholders and business partners. You will earn trust, but have strong backbone and be willing to drive hard to ensure that you and the team delivers performance in the face of competing trade-offs and agendas.
