Amazon Shipping is looking to hire an analytical, technically skilled, innovative, hands-on, and customer-obsessed Demand Planning Lead who can drive innovation and execution in transportation networks. As a member of the EU Amazon Shipping team, you will collaborate with numerous cross-functional stakeholders to build and deliver long-term consensus demand plans alongside the Network Planning team.

• Review historical sales trends, research demand drivers, validate sales inputs, develop statistical forecast models, and evaluate sales results for both long and short-term demand planning.
• Communicate complex strategies concisely and in succinct written formats to a wide variety of stakeholders for purposes ranging from informing working teams to gaining financial approval from executives.
• Understand Network Planning roadmaps to manage product transitions through the full product life cycle to help manage Event Planning.
