DESCRIPTION
Amazon Extra Large (AMXL) looks after heavy items like furniture and large home appliances. Our team manages the entire service, from supply chain fulfilment to delivery and returns. What sets this service apart from others is the extra level of customer care. Not only do we deliver large items, but we unpack, assemble and install them, and take away old items where needed. With a focus on safety, productivity and innovation, we’re changing the way customers buy and receive large goods for the better.
We have ambitious plans to expand our specialist fulfilment centers and delivery stations across the UK and Europe. While those of us who work in delivery stations will do some night shifts, most of us work during the day. Our team is made up of people across operations, supply chain, business intelligence and program management, and everyone plays a crucial role in growing this part of the business.

•Launch programmes, monitor performance metrics, and report on the status of key objectives that affect deliverables
•Use data to understand operational challenges and create continuous improvement initiatives
•Work with a variety of other Amazon departments to identify and leverage best practices
•Within a programme environment, lead a multidisciplinary team in overcoming challenges and drive progress
•Manage stakeholders and internal processes, and define standards
