A day in the life

You'll start your day reviewing status updates from cross-functional workstreams, then move into deep-dive sessions with tax specialists to clarify compliance nuances for specific countries. You'll facilitate planning meetings to map dependencies across Amazon Businesses, Finance Operations, and technical teams, then shift into problem-solving mode to unblock issues that emerge during project execution or testing phases. Throughout the day, you'll maintain comprehensive project documentation, communicate progress to program leadership, and nurture relationships with stakeholders who depend on your guidance to stay aligned on shared goals.
About the team
We are an e-invoicing implementation program management team that serves as the connective tissue across Amazon's global operations.

Together, we're building the infrastructure that allows Amazon to operate compliantly and efficiently across the globe, and we're looking for someone who can help us navigate the intricate details of e-invoicing requirements while keeping our diverse stakeholder groups moving in the same direction.
