Work hard, have fun, and make history working with Amazon's Legal Department. We are looking for a smart and motivated individual to provide administrative assistance to our Business Conduct and Ethics team.
The successful candidate will possess the ability to work efficiently and independently; manage high volumes of tasks and projects with little guidance; react with appropriate urgency to situations and events that require a quick response or turnaround; take effective action without having to know the total picture; and think creatively and be proactive in solving problems that affect people within the group or other related groups.
In addition, you must be a strong written and verbal communicator, with great attention to detail, and must be able to work independently in a constantly changing and sometimes ambiguous environment. A high level of professionalism, integrity, and discretion in handling confidential information, as well as the ability to work well with people at all levels inside and outside the company, is essential. This position involves working with attorneys, business owners, and external representatives.

• Drive individual projects across the program coordinating with key stakeholders;
• Work closely with the Business Conduct and Ethics leadership team to provide drive deliverables and support the entire organization;
• Coordinate contract approvals and execution;
