    Description

    Military Graduate Area Manager - Midlands

    Salary: £50,000 - £60,000 per annum
    Location: UK wide - Must be willing to relocate

    This role focuses on those who have military experience interested in working in the private sector. Amazon's military recruiting team is available to discuss the many opportunities within Amazon Operations.

    At Amazon, thousands of ex-military are driving innovation and raising the bar on customer experience. On a daily basis, those with military backgrounds are able to apply their knowledge, skills, and leadership abilities in a wide variety of careers – influencing change across the globe.

    When you join Amazon as an Area/Shift Manager, you'll gain experience leading a large and diverse team to make sure your area of the business keeps pace with demand. In this hands-on role, you'll learn about the complexity of operations at a global business and what it takes to make everything run seamlessly. While you implement your team's approach to drive productivity, you'll also work closely with your colleagues to address challenges, which means no two days will be the same.

    Key Job Responsibilities

    • Promote a culture of safety and wellbeing
    • Analyse and implement corrective actions to make sure quality and productivity are at consistently high levels, and business objectives are met across all shifts
    • Support and lead a team and handle administrative work alongside building and supporting a strong team culture
    • Analyse performance and suggest process improvements to optimise work and improve customer service
    • Collaborate with other managers to standardise shift processes

    A Day in the Life

    You'll work shifts and be based at one of our operational sites. Your main focus will be to maintain safety standards within your team and across your site. You'll also monitor and maintain process efficiency. Your days will always include prioritising routine team management and daily operational tasks, alongside other tasks like individual escalations, process improvement work and wide-scale operational contingency planning.

    Being a key part of the operations team involves working with colleagues in other teams and external partners to make sure we stay on track to meet our customer demands and targets. This will involve analysing data and performance metrics with leaders in your business area, as well as discussing the operational pros and cons of technical improvements with engineers.

    About the Team

    Operations sits at the heart of the Amazon customer experience. We look after everything from the moment a customer clicks buy, to the moment their item is delivered – from desktop to doorstep. We put safety first as our people are our priority. And we use the expertise of our people to get packages to their destination – quickly, conveniently and sustainably.

    There are different teams within the Amazon operations model. As a graduate Area/Shift manager you could be placed within one of these teams:

    • The Customer Fulfilment (CF) team are the first people in the chain that helps customers get products at the speed we're known for. Based in Fulfilment Centres, which are at the heart of Amazon's fast-paced Operations network. Our centres are sometimes referred to as the 'First Mile' because it's where most Amazon packages start their journey. The CF help to manage dynamic inventory and facilitate speedy deliveries round the clock.
    • Amazon couldn't deliver at pace without the Amazon Transportation Service (ATS) team. Using air, sea and road transport, as well as sortation centres equipped with the latest technology, you'll help Amazon's transport run at maximum efficiency. ATS analyses data and uses the expertise of our people to get packages to their destination – quickly, conveniently and sustainably.
    • Amazon Logistics, or AMZL, handles 'last mile' delivery duties in partnership with third-party distribution businesses. Utilising creative thinking and continuous improvement initiatives to get millions of physical products into the hands of our customers. The goal is to make our customers' delivery experience as smooth as possible and roll out global delivery solutions for our newest concepts, like Amazon Fresh, Prime Now and Amazon Restaurants.

    BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

    • Bachelor's degree (or working towards a bachelor's degree)
    • Advanced proficiency in written and verbal English
    • Relevant experience in performing data analysis

    PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

    • Experience of communicating with a wide range of stakeholders, including your peers and leadership
    • Experience in a logistical working environment
    • Experience working with the MS Office suite (Word, Excel, Outlook) in a professional environment
