Amazon EU Network Design Programs team is responsible for getting Amazon packages to customers more reliably, faster, cheaper, and with a lower carbon intensity, while managing to grow the shipped volume by double digits every year.

As a Program Manager for Network Transformation, you'll lead programs driving strategic initiatives and solving recurring problems around delivery quality, speed, cost, and carbon intensity of the Amazon Transportation network. The scale of the impact will be on the entire European Amazon network, with lasting effects. Your goal is not just to solve problems once but also to build new tools and improve processes to ensure the problems stay solved, which is essential for the scalability of the Amazon Transportation Network.

• You can deliver projects against tight deadlines and manage competing priorities.
• You get energy from identifying root causes of recurring problems and inventing new tools and processes to prevent them.

Our team transforms how Amazon packages are delivered from warehouses to customers, improving quality, speed, cost, and carbon efficiency, all while managing double-digit volume growth. We prepare Amazon Transportation for peak seasons and resolve recurring issues to streamline the network.
