The Americas DSP organization partners with entrepreneurial individuals who manage their own delivery businesses (DSPs) across the US, Canada, Brazil, and Mexico. We are looking for a Senior Program Manager who will lead the integration and launch of programs to our Delivery Service Partners (DSPs) and their Delivery Associates (DAs).
At Amazon, we're working to be the most customer-centric company on earth - including how we fulfill and deliver customer orders. Amazon is continually striving to innovate and provide a best-in-class delivery experience through the introduction of pioneering new products and services in the last mile delivery space. This includes the DSP program. Amazon is growing its network of DSPs who own and operate successful package delivery businesses. This individual will play an integral role in helping Amazon ensure the success of the DSP network by partnering with multiple program teams such as Last Mile Tech and DSP Product & Strategy who are launching programs, products, and processes to DSPs.
DSP Change management (CM) is a systematic approach to deal with transition or transformation of processes, products and/or technologies. CM assesses how changes impact Delivery Service Partners (DSPs), Delivery Associates (DAs), existing systems, and Amazon teams, and utilizes control mechanisms to ensure change risks are mitigated, stakeholders are aligned with changes, and teams are ready to execute actions needed for a smooth launch. Involving all Partner stakeholders early in the CM process allows proactive addressing of concerns.
The role will partner closely with a broad set of stakeholders to operationalize multiple high-profile, high-impact business initiatives. The candidate must be able to manage multiple large-scale, cross-functional projects, outline key milestones, and ensure deliverables are met. This role also requires communicating to senior management on program status, risks, and mitigation recommendations.
This is not an operations role. However, it may involve occasional travel to Delivery Stations to engage with DSPs and gather feedback on upcoming or recent changes.
