Amazon.com is looking for high-judgment individuals to join us as a Field Specialist. Individual will be responsible for conducting on-site audits at retail counters within a defined territory to ensure adherence to established standards, processes, and procedures. The primary objective is to evaluate and ensure that the retail counters are maintaining excellent customer experience and that no actions at the retail counter level are resulting in downstream defects or quality issues.

The Field Specialist may also be required to evaluate adjacent areas and processes that could potentially influence the overall customer experience and operational efficiency. This includes, but is not limited to, assessing storage areas, evaluating handover mechanisms between various departments or functions, identifying gaps in logistics operations, and examining other related aspects that may have an impact on the end-to-end retail experience.
*** Travel Requirements: The Field Specialist role requires frequent travel, approximately 70% of the time, to various retail locations across the networks to conduct on-site audits and assessments. ***
