Job Description
Who you are
- Experience working with the MS Office suite (Word, Excel, Outlook) in a professional environment
- Advanced proficiency in local language in both written and verbal communication (C1 Common European Framework of Reference, CEFR)
- Relevant experience working with data analytics and using these metrics to identify problems
- Preferred qualifications are not required to apply for a position at Amazon. If you have all the basic qualifications above, we’d love to hear from you
- Experience of stakeholder management including building and maintaining professional relationships
- Experience in an operational environment, such as logistics, retail, hospitality, or customer service
What the job involves
- Please be aware that this role requires a commitment of 32 hours per week
- Operations is the heart and soul of everything Amazon does
- It is thanks to effective operations that items are processed and dispatched to our customers on time
- Being an Operations Lead/Supervisor gives you the chance to see how all the different parts of operations work and play a role in making sure everything runs smoothly
- You’ll be the first point of contact for team members during their shift and help them follow the processes that your managers have put in place
- This is a hands-on role, which will give you experience in using the tools and systems that make our operations successful
- Measure and monitor workflows, track onsite performance, and provide important shift information to frontline management to ensure operational excellence across shifts
- Support and train employees to deliver great service and supervise them in their daily tasks
- Support the Shift/Area Manager with projects to improve processes, cultivate a safe working environment, and increase workforce engagement
- Work with other departments to find solutions to address common issues or support needs in areas of key performance
- Use data analysis to identify ways to optimise safety, quality and productivity
- A day in the life:
- As an Operations Lead/Supervisor, you’ll be based in one of our operational sites
- You’ll support your Shift/Area Manager to carry out the plan for the shift
- That will involve helping with pre-shift meetings with your team and monitoring procedures to make sure everyone is following safety rules, quality processes, and the priority plan for the day
- You’ll escalate any issues you spot to your manager, but sometimes you’ll be the most senior person on shift and will give people the direction they need to complete their tasks
- At other times, you’ll support your Shift/Area Manager in planning shifts to make sure you have enough team members working during peak times
- About the team:
- Quick Commerce (QC) delivers ultra-fast convenience through our network of small warehouse in city center locations, partnering with last-mile delivery providers to get products to customers in 30 minutes or less
- We combine creative thinking and technological innovation to fulfill millions of urgent shopping missions, offering a curated selection of grocery items and Amazon essentials
- Our operations have two key components
- Our 'under the roof' associates process orders with industry-leading speed, picking and packing customer orders to enable our 30-minute delivery promise
- We operate with a people-first approach, with teams working across morning and afternoon shifts to serve customers seven days a week
- Meanwhile, our 'on the road' delivery network primarily utilizes Amazon Flex delivery partners on e-bikes specially optimized for rapid urban delivery
- We continuously innovate to improve customer experience, focusing on sustainable delivery solutions in dense urban areas while maintaining strict quality and food safety standards
- Our team combines the best of Amazon's retail and logistics expertise, leveraging both Fresh and AMZL operational excellence
- We foster a collaborative environment that encourages creative problem-solving and continuous improvement, as we work to revolutionize convenience shopping through ultra-fast delivery
