DESCRIPTION
As a part of the Scheduling team, you will work on improving the process and solutions we use to create truck schedules delivering for our customers every day. The team operates in the very middle of a bigger process that starts with network planning and volume forecasting and goes all the way down until the truck is secured in a specific place and time.
In this framework, you will identify opportunities to improve the way we schedule as well as work on initiatives to improve our planning accuracy, automation in execution, and simplification of the scheduling process in Europe and the UK geographies. You will work with a variety of internal stakeholders, including Program Teams, Operations, Supply Chain, and Forecasting, Tech and Science, partnering to improve our planning solutions.
Successful candidates will have analytical skills, work extensively with data and KPIs, conduct analytical research, communicate clearly while partnering with a wide range of stakeholders, and be able to depart from ambiguous and complex problems to arrive at cost-efficient and simplified solutions and influence their stakeholders. This role will provide you an opportunity to demonstrate your creativity and rely on your expertise to make decisions that will have a significant impact on Amazon Transportation Service, shaping the future of Amazon.
Key job responsibilities
- Analyse complex data to explain KPIs performance and identify opportunities to achieve higher targets. Build analytics needed using Excel, dashboards, SQL, etc.
- Create processes to evaluate the cost of scheduling decisions based on planning strategy, working in partnership with Finance, Programs, and Operations teams.
- Identify opportunities and challenge the status quo in how scheduling, planning, and execution processes work end-to-end using data and research to address wider challenges in your organisation.
- Drive needed changes alongside stakeholders, influencing their roadmaps and making strategic decisions.
- Work closely with Tech teams and Applied and Research Science teams to support them in the development of tools & tech solutions required to drive change, ensuring they meet business requirements and support their launch.
- Act as a Subject Matter Expert, supporting teams and contributing to reliable and trustful partnerships with internal stakeholders.
- Communicate findings and proposals in a clear and compelling way, verbally and in writing.
A day in the life
As a Transport Manager, you will drive and manage the implementation of creative, data-driven change in Amazon, leading improvement projects and initiatives. You'll use strategic thinking to define and implement an efficient project plan.
Transport Planning Managers have significant responsibilities, and you will deal with complex challenges with creativity, innovation, and leadership. With a responsibility extending beyond process improvements, you could also contribute to improving other areas of the business, like diversity, equity, and inclusion.
