You'll also be a role model and mentor to new managers.
About the teamCustomer Fulfilment, or CF, is where it all started for Amazon.

With the help of emerging technology, we're always looking for ways to offer a bigger, better product range – delivered quickly and affordably.

We're based in Fulfilment Centres, which are at the heart of Amazon's fast-paced Operations network. Our centres are sometimes referred to as the 'First Mile' because it's where most Amazon packages start their journey. We help to manage dynamic inventory and facilitate speedy deliveries round the clock.
