About The Position

The Amazon Advertising team is seeking a passionate and driven Executive Assistant to support 2-3 Directors in the Sponsored Products and Brands (SPB) organization.

We are looking for someone motivated, with a proven history of high performance and the ability to operate effectively under pressure. You are confident, enthusiastic, resourceful, tech-savvy, forward-thinking, self-motivated, and a creative problem solver. You are not content with the status quo and aim to invent and simplify processes and programs, seeking out areas of improvement and solutions. You are able to execute with urgency, while being a effective communicator at all levels is a must. You will also have a high level of integrity and discretion in handling confidential information and professionalism in dealing with senior executives internal and external to Amazon. This position will work closely with a team of Executive Assistants to facilitate key team activities and projects. The ability to work independently and collaboratively with a strong sense of ownership, bias for action, and customer obsession is highly valued. This role requires five (5) days a week in office.
