Work in Washington Veterans Jobs

Description

Join us at the cutting edge of Amazon's sustainability initiatives to work on emerging sustainability data and reporting requirements and support Amazon's long-term worldwide sustainability strategy. At Amazon, we're working to be the most customer-centric company on earth. To get there, we need exceptionally talented, bright, and driven people.

The Worldwide Sustainability (WWS) team capitalizes on Amazon’s scale, speed, and ability to invent and simplify to create a better and more resilient company. We manage our social and environmental impacts globally, and we drive solutions that enable our customers and our business to become more sustainable.

The ESG-eX team's mission is to build a lasting, scalable and trusted ESG reporting infrastructure to satisfy regulatory requirements and stakeholders’ expectations. We translate external requirements into internal needs and build tools and mechanisms that enable Amazon businesses to meet their ESG reporting obligations and effectively manage their ESG opportunities and risks.

The Worldwide Sustainability ESG Reporting team is looking for a detail focused, results-oriented and collaborative business analyst to support building Amazon’s global ESG disclosure processes and tools with analytics that enable the rapid production of trustworthy and useful ESG reports.

This role will work cross functionally to understand regulatory reporting requirements, our programs and key metrics so that they can scale our regulatory ESG reporting infrastructure and develop scalable processes to produce insights from data using existing tech infrastructure. The primary customer for this role will be ESG report owners at Amazon.

Your responsibilities will support the delivery of Amazon’s regulatory ESG reports in a rapidly evolving global regulatory environment. This will involve building efficiencies in our reporting tools: i.e using queries and linking features in Workiva. You will also build analytic reporting tools and processes, collecting key metrics from partner teams, and coordinating communications to senior leadership within our organization and legal, accounting and finance teams.

As a Business Analyst, you will help develop an analytic solution to drive deep dives, provide insights into the health and state of operations for our reporting process. Automating data flow and building efficiencies in our processes will be a primary focus. You will transform data into ready to use data for disclosure purposes and will support reporting to stakeholders worldwide.

A successful candidate will be highly analytical, resourceful, customer-focused, and will have an ability to work independently under time constraints to meet deadlines. You will have a proven track record of successful delivery of results in a fast-paced and dynamic business environment. Customer teams will look to you to derive insights into variances for ESG metrics, reporting, and analysis for ESG Regulatory Reporting.

Key job responsibilities

• Create analysis that allows ESG reporting teams to understand the correlation between ESG data sets to drive actionable outcomes by leveraging business analysis, metric and data management experience, reporting, and analytic tools/languages like SQL, Excel, etc.
