Sr. Strategic Adoption Mgr, Amazon Business

DESCRIPTION

Amazon Business represents an incredible opportunity to serve a vast new market segment and customer base. We are focused on building out a solution that enables business customers to find, compare, and buy from millions of items across multiple devices and marketplaces.

Since 1994, Amazon has continuously expanded its product selection and innovated on behalf of customers in an ongoing effort to fulfill its stated ambition of being earth's most customer-centric company. Since 2015, Amazon.com has started reinventing on behalf of the business customer and is focused on building Amazon Business, the largest and most innovative Business-to-Business (B2B) marketplace in the world.

Our business customers include individual professionals, small businesses to large institutions (and everything in between). Our business customers have different needs than the traditional Amazon retail customers, and we are reinventing everything from how we display our selection to how we price and deliver products for customers and throughout the whole of the customer experience.
