Key job responsibilities

• You work independently to successfully manage difficult, cross-functional projects (from inception to completion) delivering high quality results (e.g., efficient, compliant, understandable, secure, maintainable, low-defects, etc.).

• You manage and execute processes that support multiple pillars within the Community team. You partner with stakeholders and/or managers to set priorities, milestones, and drive delivery to meet deadlines for program goals.

• You improve team processes and metrics across all pillars by identifying opportunities for automation, blockers to scalability and gaps in parity.

• You work with internal field partners (i.e. Amazon Fresh warehouses and stores) and external partners (non-profits) to develop, implement and iterate on network-wide processes related to donations and waste diversion.

• You are proficient at transforming raw thoughts into clear, consistent, accurate documentation and/or direction. You consistently impart clear and concise summaries for the projects you own to your leadership/management team and are effective at answering questions in detail.

• You keep the scope of effort under control and accelerate progress, or operational efficiencies, by driving crisp and timely decisions, identifying and clearing blockers, and escalating appropriately.

• You have good working relationships with stakeholders, managers, and peers. You recognize discordant views and take part in constructive dialogue to resolve them.

• You have flexibility to travel up to once per month to engage with internal and external partners, ensuring operational processes are operating efficiently and providing feedback where needed.
