DESCRIPTION
Since 1994, Amazon has continuously expanded its product selection and innovated on behalf of customers in an on-going effort to fulfil its stated ambition of being earth's most customer-centric company. Today, Amazon's rapidly expanding consumer product range offers books, video games, consumer electronics, apparel, jewellery, grocery, as well as Amazon Kindle, Echo devices and many others.
Amazon is now reinventing on behalf of the business customer and focused on building Amazon Business (AB), the largest and most innovative Business-to-Business (B2B) marketplace in the world, and we are recruiting a handful of the best of the best to make this vision a reality. B2B represents an incredible opportunity to address a vast new market segment and customer base. We are focused on building solutions to enable B2B customers to discover, research, and buy products and services from a vast selection, across multiple devices, marketplaces and regions. Our B2B customers have different needs than the traditional Amazon customer and thus we have to reinvent everything from how we display our selection, price our products, and provide the right customer experience.
The AB EU Customer Operations (EUCO) is a dynamic European team that works across all functions of the AB organization generating strategic insights and enabling our Customer Advisors to invent on behalf of the customer. AB is seeking a Senior Business Analyst (SBA) to own the Customer Data Management (CDM) strategy for the EU AB team. The SBA will constantly improve coverage, completeness and accuracy of 1MM+ data records within AB's customer management platform (Salesforce) through their advanced analytical and modelling skills. Customer data underpins the ABEU go-to-market strategies and finding new ways to improve the quality of this data is critical as our business scales.
This is a high visibility and influential role; we are looking for candidates that can combine expertise in business planning, change management and cross-functional execution. The SBA will be required to align and influence a number of internal Amazon EU/Global teams to scale the EU CDM strategy across the worldwide AB team. Critically, this is a newly created and rapidly evolving role; the SBA must be comfortable thinking big shaping the future of SDM within ABEU.
The successful candidate will have experience in working within a business intelligence environment and looking for the opportunity to utilise these analytical and modelling skills in a more commercial position. This individual should be fluent in languages such as SQL and Python. Effective collaboration with internal stakeholders and cross-functional teams will be essential to solve problems, enable business performance for a rapidly expanding team and product offering, create operational efficiencies, and deliver successfully against high organizational standards. The ideal candidate has strong financial acumen, deep analytic background and critical thinking and problem solving skills to ensure the continued growth and success of the business.
