Manchester, United Kingdom Amazon UK Services Ltd. Full time
Are you interested in innovating to deliver a world-class service to Amazon’s Selling Partners? The Strategic Accounts Services (SAS) program seeks to improve the customer and Selling Partner experience on Amazon by working directly with Selling Partners to improve value, selection and convenience across their business. Our team will invent and innovate across technology, processes and people to grow the program, improve seller engagement and satisfaction and enable scalable growth solutions through direct cooperation with our teams across the EU.
SAS Starter is seeking a dynamic and motivated Strategic Business Consultant to develop Selling Partners and to help grow our newly launched Paid Services programs. Our Starter program is a growth service targeting new and innovative sellers in the early stages of growth. These sellers span a wide range of categories from fashion to consumables. The Strategic Business Consultant is responsible for working with a group of 15 Selling Partners, offering support with creative marketing and advertising, optimizing supply chain, and strategizing deal plan to drive sales. You will also be responsible for recruiting and onboarding Selling Partners to this new service and will be their primary point of contact. This is an opportunity to shape a key new growth program in Amazon’s EU marketplace and support the growth of our small and medium Selling Partners.
The Strategic Business Consultant will be responsible for building long-term relationships with decision makers.

You will work closely alongside colleagues in Europe, and have many opportunities to develop your career at Amazon.
The ideal candidate must be comfortable influencing senior external stakeholders, have a track record of using data and tools to drive business growth and be comfortable operating in an ambiguous environment given the early stage of the SAS program and the wide spectrum of Selling Partners.
