AI in this role

Operations is the beating heart of Amazon. This key part of our business makes sure we dispatch and deliver orders efficiently so that our customers get their items on time. It’s driven by Delivery Station Managers who bring the team together to push excellence in safety, quality and productivity across our sites.

At your site, you’ll lead other managers and create the operational plan that helps your teams meet their targets. This role is all about driving operational excellence to create the Amazon of tomorrow.

Key job responsibilities
- Manage and develop a team of Area Managers
- Own your site, deal with issues and positively impact site performance
- Analyse site performance against relevant business objectives, and put in place actions to improve our operational excellence
- Work closely with other support teams, including PxT (HR), Finance, Delivery Service Partners (DSP), IT, Amazon Customer Excellence System (ACES) and Engineering units
- Design and deliver initiatives across the sites to improve operational performance

A day in the life
You have ultimate ownership for an entire Delivery Station, leading teams, tracking site performance and always looking for ways to improve the customer experience. That means you’ll be close to the day-to-day operations at your site but also contribute to new ways to innovate at your site.

A typical day will involve collaboration with different stakeholders, deep diving performance and risk metrics for sites as well as preparing for different levels of demand. You will mentor and coach your team to achieve top level results.

About the team
Amazon Logistics, or AMZL, handles ‘last mile’ delivery duties in partnership with third-party distribution businesses. We utilise creative thinking and continuous improvement initiatives to get millions of physical products into the hands of our customers. Our goal is to make our customers’ delivery experience as smooth as possible and roll out global delivery solutions for our newest concepts, like Amazon Fresh, Prime Now and Amazon Restaurants.

There are two sides to what we do. Our ‘under the roof’ associates process millions of products for dispatch to our delivery teams. Our team is people-focused and supportive, particularly as lots of our people work through the night. We focus mostly on operations, with 24/7 shifts in most of our locations.
