Descripción del empleo

Amazon is Skechers’ most globally scaled marketplace relationship, spanning the US, Europe, Japan, India, Mexico, Brazil, Turkey, Australia, and distributor-led markets in the Middle East and Africa. Each region has built its own approach to selection, inventory, advertising, promotions, and terms. This leader owns the global Amazon business, sets one strategy across regions, and serves as Skechers’ single senior voice to Amazon. They preserve the local market and product expertise that makes each region work, while creating leverage through shared strategy, data, technology, and processes. The goal is to grow Amazon profitably worldwide and run it more efficiently, so regional teams focus on higher-value work and stop rebuilding the same processes market by market.

• The Amazon relationship: serve as the senior-level single voice to Amazon on joint planning, escalations, and global terms, working toward standard global terms and using Skechers’ scale to improve economics
• Partners and shared capabilities: decide which agency and technology partners should scale globally and which work belongs regionally, and set the global approach to content/PXM, catalog, data, and automation
• Organization: shape the long-term global team structure and talent plan

WHAT YOU'LL BRING:

• 10+ years of ecommerce or marketplace experience, with deep Amazon experience at Amazon or on the brand side

• Strong cross-functional leadership. You influence with or without authority across different regions, cultures, and operating models (direct, JV, distributor), and bring senior stakeholders and Amazon leadership along.

• Strong ownership and the ability to operate at scale
• A people leader who develops talent and elevates teams doing largely executional work
