Description

At Amazon, we're working to be the most customer-centric company on earth and the world’s best employer. To get there, we need exceptionally talented, bright, and driven people. Do you want to play an instrumental role in leading diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) strategies for Amazon’s high growth environment? Here’s your opportunity! We are seeking an influential and experienced DEI program manager to execute against the DEI strategy for our Last Mile Delivery & Tech (LMDT) organization, with dedicated support to our Geospatial/WW Hub Teams, by partnering with leaders to help us grow a diverse global workforce while fostering equity and inclusion. You’ll use your skills to work both across the business as well as deep dive with specific teams to help them identify opportunities and apply best practices that achieve change. You’ll partner with senior leadership teams to design, coordinate, track and measure our DEI solutions and overall plan.

Key job responsibilities

As part of the LMDT and Geospatial/WW Hub Team, you will work closely with LMDT business leaders and colleagues across PXT (including HR business partners, talent leads, and recruiting) to help organizational leaders set, track, and achieve DEI goals.

You will also partner with Amazon’s global PXT team to drive corporate-wide programs at scale into our organization. You will measure and communicate results against committed DEI actions, so that we can ensure meaningful progress toward DEI and business goals. Ability to assess risks, anticipate bottlenecks, provide escalation management, make tradeoffs, and balance business needs as they implement DEI programs is critical. Successful candidates will have experience analyzing and leveraging DEI data to set priorities and understand challenges, advising and coaching leaders, earning trust with customers, supporting equitable talent processes, and exhibiting the ability to invent and simplify to translate best practices and research into action. You should not only be passionate about delivering DEI solutions but obsessed with driving meaningful results that ultimately impact our customers.
