Amazon Field Sales Operations Manager, North America Startups in Seattle, Washington

Description

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the leading cloud provider, offering virtualized infrastructure, storage, networking, GenAi, messaging, analytics, and other web computing services to customers all over the world. AWS operates a globally distributed environment at massive levels of scale, offering over 200 fully featured services to millions of active customers around the world—including the fastest-growing startups, largest enterprises, and leading government agencies—to power their infrastructure. Startups, which are now primarily born-in-the-cloud, represent a critically important and growing subset of customers to AWS. Startups have unique needs, priorities, and growth trajectories that distinguish them from traditional businesses and require different engagement strategies and sales motions from sellers to effectively acquire, grow, and retain them long-term on the AWS platform. This is your chance to join our high-impact Global Sales Operations team as the Field Sales Operations Manager for one of our divisions within North America Startups (NAMER SUP).

Key job responsibilities

The NAMER SUP Sales Operations team is a critical engine powering the growth of the Startups segment. In partnership with our Go-To-Market (GTM) stakeholders, we're on a mission to secure the next generation of high-growth startups and make AWS their primary Cloud Service Provider (CSP) of choice. The NAMER SUP Sales Operations Lead will play a pivotal role in delivering on NAMER Startups goals and priorities by closely collaborating with the Go-To-Market and Business Development teams. In this role, you will leverage your expertise in optimizing workflows, extracting actionable insights from data, and navigating organizational complexities to define key sales support systems aligned with business objectives. You'll build strong relationships across functions such as Sales, Business Development, Partner, Finance, and Marketing, enabling you to lead change management initiatives for process improvements and focus on enhancing operational productivity across the NAMER SUP organization. Ultimately, you'll be instrumental in removing roadblocks and driving solutions that empower our sales force to effectively acquire, grow, and retain the best startups on AWS. Your work will be crucial in supporting our mission to make AWS the CSP of choice for the next generation of high-growth startups by optimizing the operational engine that powers our growth.

About the team

Our North America Startups Sales Operations team acts as a trusted advisor, providing "Chief Operating Officer (COO)"-level support and thought leadership to sales leaders. This translates to high-quality decision-making built on a foundation of data-driven insights. We go beyond the immediate, offering an "outside-in" perspective on the long-term health of the business. We identify and own critical, long-term operational initiatives – the "big rocks" that may not yield immediate results but are essential for long-term viability. Ultimately, we empower ambitious startups to change the world and turn bold ideas into reality.
