DESCRIPTION

About The Business
More than 300 million customers shop on Amazon's global store every day, browsing, purchasing, and reviewing products sold by both Amazon and third-party sellers. Since 2000, Amazon has provided individuals and businesses of all sizes with a platform to reach hundreds of millions of customers, build their brands, and grow their businesses. Today, third-party seller products account for more than half of all units sold in our store. This is an exciting opportunity to innovate and drive impact in Marketplace, one of Amazon's core pillars.

About The Role
The International Seller Services (ISS) Finance team is looking for a highly motivated and experienced Finance Manager to lead the financial strategy and operations for our newly established WW External Fulfillment (EF) charter.

Sellers are the lifeblood of Amazon's Marketplace, and new sellers are a critical driver of growth, contributing significantly to both our active seller base and product selection. By recruiting and supporting third-party (3P) sellers, ISS helps them grow their businesses on Amazon-whether through their own logistics networks or by leveraging Amazon's global fulfillment and customer service capabilities. A healthy and thriving seller ecosystem is essential to the long-term success of Amazon's 3P business.
