Detroit, Michigan, United States Amazon Full time

Join us at the cutting edge of Amazon's sustainability initiatives to work on environmental and social advancements to support Amazon's long term worldwide sustainability strategy. At Amazon, we're working to be the most customer-centric company on earth. To get there, we need exceptionally talented, bright, and driven people.

The Worldwide Sustainability (WWS) organization capitalizes on Amazon's scale and speed to build a more resilient and sustainable company. We manage our social and environmental impacts globally, and drive solutions that enable our customers, businesses, and the world to become more sustainable.

Amazon co-founded The Climate Pledge, our commitment to reach net-zero carbon across our global operations by 2040. As part of the Worldwide Environment team, Amazon's Worldwide Carbon team is dedicated to working across the company with our business units to make operational changes to accelerate solutions and decarbonize our businesses in service of The Climate Pledge.

As part of the Sustainable Buildings team within Worldwide Carbon, this candidate will work with internal business partners to support Amazon's carbon reduction goals throughout our global real estate, from site selection and leasing all the way through operations.

This scope will also include working with other teams inside WW Sustainability, and industry and other external partners, to advance our sustainable building work through programs owned by others and the broader industry.

This role will also lead central initiatives that support our strategic approach to meeting The Climate Pledge in our real estate, and therefore, the ideal candidate will have expert building knowledge, along with deep technical experience in building sustainability.

The candidate scope of work can include improving data systems such as carbon models to quantify and track building-related performance at a portfolio and business level; supporting glidepaths, abatement priorities, and techno-economic modeling; developing improvements to existing operational and embodied carbon processes and data systems; and developing roadmaps that help us stay on pace to meet our sustainability commitments in our new and existing buildings.

Key job responsibilities

Responsibilities:

  • Support the execution of a comprehensive sustainability program for Amazon's real estate
  • Work with diverse stakeholders to coordinate, and implement strategies to reduce, monitor, and optimize Amazon's carbon footprint in buildings
  • Prepare written analysis of findings and recommendations for various building-related sustainability solutions, and manage key external relationships and partnerships
  • Assist in the development of tools to surface, analyze and report out building data necessary for business teams and centralized leadership reporting and decision-making
  • Analyze and communicate the financial impact of projects and initiatives
  • Communicate and present to key leaders
  • Manage multiple projects that roll-up into a single program, linking datasets and progress
  • Build relationships with internal stakeholders, and in some cases external suppliers
