A day in the life
Our Finance Managers at this level take a hands-on role to boost our business performance and efficiency. You’ll collaborate with partners in different areas of our business to provide insights on improvements in our operational performance. That will involve deep diving into data, managing our planning processes, and giving team members guidance on more ambiguous areas of our cost structures. You’ll also help other teams across the EU to gain access to vital insights and to collaborate.

You’ll manage or mentor people and work closely with partners to help inform and guide their key decisions. This role is predominantly based in one of our corporate offices but may also be based in one of our sites with opportunities to work remotely on occasion.

About the team
Customer Fulfilment, or CF, is where it all started for Amazon. CF has scaled up from a humble team of booksellers to a sophisticated global team which handles more than 1.5 million orders every day. The team is the foundation of our business and its efforts have helped us diversify across new regions and services. With the help of emerging technology, we’re always looking for ways to offer a bigger, better product range - delivered quickly and affordably.

The CF team are the first people in the chain that helps customers get products at the speed we’re known for. Our fulfilment centres are sometimes referred to as the ‘First Mile’ because it’s where most Amazon packages start their journey. We help to manage dynamic inventory and facilitate speedy deliveries round the clock.

In the Network Planning finance team, we work with stakeholders in supply chain, transportation and fulfilment centres to help the business achieve its goals. Your responsibilities could include anything from capturing and analysing data around KPIs, building investment models, planning resources for busy periods, driving savings projects or making data-backed business decisions around controllership and network design.

Within the team, we help to shape the strategies that ensure we operate in a way that’s commercially rewarding and fiscally responsible. We also work on projects, such as costing expansion plans and new site planning.
