Job description
Amazon Canada is a fast-growing business where our business model is evolving with technology and industry trends. We need nimble leaders who move fast, are capable of breaking down and solving complex problems, and have a strong will to get things done in an environment that resembles a start-up. Amazon is seeking to hire and develop leaders that can grow into general managers that can independently run large business segments spanning multiple functional areas.

They will work with strategic vendors/brands for the Hardlines categories and must have the leadership presence and communication skills to represent Amazon at all levels of the organization. The candidate must also possess strong analytical skills and be comfortable drawing metrics-based conclusions by leveraging and interpreting data while working with cross-functional teams across strategic, marketing, and operational business issues.

The ideal candidate has strong business judgment with a track record of successful negotiations and overall relationship management. They should be able to define and drive long-term objectives and strategy for the business. Proven analytical thinking, project management skills, attention to detail, and exceptional organizational skills are musts.

- Identifying industry trends that are relevant to customer selection and experience.
- Collaborating on Marketing and Merchandising initiatives.
- Innovating and implementing new customer and vendor programs.
- Representing Amazon when meeting with senior executive teams from top vendors and build long term strategic relationships.
