Description
Amazon's Product Insurance business seeks a multi-talented Risk Business Partner to support the business in understanding, managing, and anticipating risks in a constantly changing environment. Our Product Protection Experience team is a rapidly growing global business, allowing customers to purchase additional coverage against accidental damage, breakdown, or theft on selected products sold through our Amazon stores.
The role’s scope spans across evaluating country-specific risk, product-specific risks, customer-facing risks, and understanding regulatory changes. Risk Management provides an independent oversight and maintains an effective control environment.
This work has a significant impact, both on customers, as well as the Product Insurance business and our insurance partners. Lastly, as team culture is an essential part of who we are, we seek intellectually curious, passionate, and fun individuals who would like to apply and expand their skills as they contribute to this new and exciting space.

- Establishing strong relationships with Product, Tech, Risk, Compliance, and Legal partners
- Engaging with global horizontal risk programs (e.g. Compliance led programs, Third-party outsourcing, Buyer Risk Prevention – fraud initiatives)
- Oversight, guidance, monitoring, and continuous improvement of the execution of risk services delivered to business and technology stakeholders
- Working backward from customers, engage with businesses to ensure customer-facing user experiences are risk vetted
