We are hiring Program Managers to run complex and cross functional supply chain projects. This role is a part of the centralized supply chain planning function at Amazon MENA.

• They will liaise across functions to drive their project and help clear issues and bottlenecks
• They will work with technology teams to scope out and drive any tech changes that are needed

Above all, we expect program managers to be single threaded owners for their initiatives. This is a high ownership position where you directly control your destiny.

Program Managers will be measured on the impact of their project. Depending on the project, clear financial or other impact goals will be set forth. It is the program manager’s responsibility to ensure they drive the program towards achieving those goals.
