As our Global Supplier Management team continues to grow, we are seeking a Supplier Operations Manager to partner with internal business owners and key stakeholders to drive procurement and operational value for Amazon.

Our Global Procurement Organization (GPO) manages the procurement lifecycle of complex projects necessary to support Amazon’s growth and customer commitments. This work includes initial project planning based on Amazon’s Plan of Record (POR), development of sourcing strategies, supplier approvals, qualifications for scope of work, the solicitation of firm pricing proposals, and proposal analysis, review, and acceptance, culminating in issuance of Amazon Purchase Orders (POs) for services. Post-PO, our team serves as a critical resource resolving start up escalations and supplier issues and existing FC’s, partnering closely with Category teams.
