Description

Amazon Advertising operates at the intersection of eCommerce and advertising, offering a rich array of digital display advertising solutions with the goal of helping our customers find and discover anything they want to buy. We help advertisers reach Amazon customers on Amazon.com, across our other owned and operated sites, on other high quality sites across the web, and on millions of Kindles, tablets, and mobile devices. We start with the customer and work backwards in everything we do, including advertising. If you’re interested in joining a rapidly growing team working to build a unique, world-class advertising group with a relentless focus on the customer, you’ve come to the right place.

Partners are our evangelists and customers. They include agencies, tool providers, AdTech providers, consultants, content creators, and designers, who use their expertise to help advertisers and marketers achieve their retail and advertising goals by appropriately leveraging a diverse portfolio of Amazon Ads products. The Ads Partner Experience organization (APX) helps partners and their associates (business development, campaign managers, developers and other functions) create value for advertisers at scale. We accomplish this by delivering scalable products that build partner expertise in Amazon tools and best practices, offering insights to improve advertiser outcomes, and incentivizing innovation on behalf of our mutual customers. In this role, you will be defining and building the future of the Amazon Partner Network experience enabling millions of existing and new advertisers to discover the partner network and find the right partner that meets their advertising needs.

This role is focused on growing the impact and influence of our Amazon Ads partner network in our international locales. We seek leaders who can think big, deal with ambiguity and innovate on behalf of the customers. A successful candidate will be able to work backwards from customers to define the business case and opportunities in our international countries and present the same to Senior Leadership. The candidate will be able to identify products or programs that will help address these opportunities at scale across countries. They will be able to launch quickly, measure impact of initiatives and use customer feedback to improve on their programs iteratively with bias for action. They will have an established background in program management, stakeholder management, excellent communication skills, and a motivation to achieve results in a dynamic fast paced environment.

Our team is distributed across the United States, with team members across time zones. We gather at least once per quarter in places like NYC, Seattle, and San Luis Obispo to plan out the upcoming term.
