Meteorologist, WWOS Resilience

Description

Join an innovative team that delivers tailored products and services to protect our customers and business operations. The mission of Amazon World Wide Operations Security (WWOS) is to mitigate security and operational risks and impact to our associates, operations, assets, and brand.

Amazon is looking for a Meteorologist (London based) in support of our Global Risk and Resilience team.

The Meteorologist, a member of the WWOS Meteorology team, will be an individual contributor (IC) responsible for (1) producing tactical meteorological forecast products in support of logistics operations across the EU and Rest of the World (RoTW) regions; (2) providing weather briefing support to operations stakeholders during large-scale disruptive weather events; and (3) end-to-end management of complex weather-related projects that strategically impact Amazon's Life and Safety, Operations, and Brand.

In this role, you will proactively identify, analyse, and inform relevant weather and climate trends and translate customer requirements into scalable, actionable solutions. You will leverage OSINT, climate radar and satellite imagery, and tradecraft to identify emerging threats, and produce written and oral briefs that help customers anticipate risks and look around the corner.

The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced, dynamic environment that demands critical thinking, deep-dive analysis, and the ability to manage competing priorities with exceptional attention to detail. They bring a genuine passion for delighting customers, collaborating across teams, and continuously raising the bar, always seeking opportunities to refine processes, close gaps, and deliver more impactful products.

The successful candidate must have a proven record of effective leadership capabilities and demonstrate good judgment while under pressure. The candidate will also be expected to operate autonomously, use discretion when dealing with sensitive and critical information, and apply sound business principles and data analysis to identify problems and initiate actions to address them.

This position will occasionally require working outside of normal business hours.
