At Amazon, we strive to be Earth’s most customer-centric company, where people can come to find and discover anything they might want to buy online. At Amazon Logistics, we are building a world-class last mile operation, significantly complimented by our brand new service, which works directly with independent contractors, called delivery partners, to make deliveries to our customers. With this new last mile delivery service (Amazon Flex), individuals can now be their own boss delivering Amazon packages. It is powered by a mobile app that works in concert with our advanced logistics systems that allows delivery partners to on board, schedule delivery times, guide them through their deliveries with in-app mapping and navigation, and more. The approach and technology are nothing short of disruptive, and promise to challenge traditional approaches, and change the way the industry operates.

We are seeking a Program Manager, Engagement to lead strategic initiatives that improve the delivery partner experience and drive long-term business outcomes across the customer lifecycle. This role serves as owner for engagement programs, partnering across Marketing, Product, Operations, Finance, Legal, PR, and Tech to design, launch, and scale solutions that improve activation, engagement, retention, and re-engagement.

By combining customer insights, data-driven decision making, lifecycle engagement strategies, and operational excellence, this role delivers scalable programs that improve both customer experience and business performance.

This role also plays a key role in business continuity planning by assessing the customer and operational impact of regulatory changes, product launches, and business disruptions, developing mitigation strategies that minimize risk while ensuring a seamless delivery partner experience.

We are continuing to build a high paced and lean Japan team to implement and expand our last mile capabilities across key segments of Japan Transportation business. Amazon is now looking to hire an experienced, passionate, dynamic, analytical, innovative, hands-on, and (most importantly) customer-obsessed Program Manager for our JP Amazon Flex Marketing Team.
