Amazon Transportation Services (ATS) is a rapidly growing, global operation unit, which significantly impacts the customer experience. Within ATS, Amazon Freight Partner (AFP) is a program that enables entrepreneurs to start and grow their trucking business alongside Amazon, with exclusive and customized learning, ability to hire from their local communities, and long-term growth potential. It’s also the preferred supply type to launch and trial new technology such as Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEV).
The Amazon Freight Partner team is seeking candidates with entrepreneurial spirit who are quick learners and comfortable operating in a fast-paced environment. We are looking for a Program Manager to help us to continue spearheading the electrification of the worldwide Amazon Middle Mile. You will contribute to the Amazon Climate pledge – our commitment made in 2019 to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2040.
As a key member of a cross-functional and global team you will:
- Lead the ZEV weekly business review to drive and continuously improve operations of the existing BET fleet
- Manage deployment of new ZEVs across Europe
- Build business cases for strategic initiatives
- Coordinate due diligence on cross-business collaborations ensuring financial/operational viability and high carrier experience
- Influence and build the strategic BET expansion roadmap
We are actively seeking a data and technology-driven innovator, problem solver, comfortable solving ambiguous problems, and focused on delighting our customers. You must have experience and be comfortable working with teams across all levels of different organizations.
This role offers an opportunity to make business-critical decisions that will transform the current transportation environment while influencing Senior Leadership on the direction for the Middle Mile business.
