Job Description
Description As a Supply Chain Manager within Mid Term Planning (MTP), you will have the opportunity to own supply chain planning at the highest level for Amazon’s fulfillment business. You will have a holistic view of supply and demand within the Amazon fulfillment network and be an integral part in creating and implementing large scale strategic initiatives in inventory optimization, transportation cost, labor capacity management and more – all with the goal of better serving our customers. There will rarely be a perfect solution, so it will be up to you to make data-driven decisions and manage stakeholder relationships while planning and executing within an ever-changing environment.

In this role, a Mid Term Planning Program Manager will seek out problems, dive deep into data, earn trust of partner teams, and deliver results that can have a large scale influence. This role is a blend of short term execution and long term strategic planning, that requires quick decision-making, with incomplete data, while also thinking big and influencing the long term direction of the network. The end goal of this role is to answer the question of how we can fulfill more products to our customers in a safer, faster, more efficient, and more cost-effective manner.
