Executive Assistant, AWS Data Center Community

1 month ago


Seattle, Washington, United States Amazon Full time

Amazon Web Services is seeking an experienced administrative professional to support our VP AWS Data Centers based in Seattle. This very visible role requires the ability to complete complex tasks and small projects with little to no guidance, lead staff meetings and other business operations, and collaborate with other senior leader executive assistants to quickly and efficiently calendar critical and sensitive business meetings. Additionally, this lead executive assistant position will define the operating standards and rhythm for the global AWS Data Center Community executive assistant team, and own the scaling and development plans for the group. This position will interact with customers, vendors, regulators, and other constituents on timely, sensitive, and business critical matters.

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other
words, we're the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage,
networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely
on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we're
looking for talented people who want to help.

You'll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts,
operations managers, and other vital roles. You'll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest
standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our
customers. And you'll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to
completion.

Key job responsibilities

• Manage complex calendar and scheduling requirements

• Track and help drive completion of key deliverables and following up on outstanding items

• Drive key team activities, such as staff meeting agendas, all-hands meetings, and supply ordering

• Plan and organize events and activities, including travel arrangements

• Hire and develop a deep bench of high potential executive assistants in and outside the AWS Data Center organization

• Plan, scale, and manage administrative support for a global organization growing in excess of 25% annually

• Simplify administrative processes that inefficient and/or that generate unnecessary friction and high levels of frustration

• Execute high judgement decisions as a delegate of the VP AWS Data Centers

A day in the life
Working in a highly ambiguous environment, you will demonstrate initiative, complete tasks and projects quickly, and proactively take action without having to know the total picture. You will learn organizational structures and objectives of the teams you support, as well as build a strong internal network. You will apply a superior attention to detail, great organizational skills, and the ability to meet tight deadlines and juggle multiple critical requests while maintaining flexibility, a sense of humor, and most importantly, grace under pressure. Over time, you will build deep and trusting professional relationships with the leaders and their teams, which will blossom into strong partnerships that provide opportunity for special projects with increased responsibility and long-term career growth.
