CS Operations Manager II [A], Customer Service

Description

Amazon is looking for an Acting Operations Manager II who will provide strategic and tactical leadership for approximately 240 associates with direct line management of around 12 Team Managers. This role requires defining metrics, goals, and long-term strategy while managing ambiguity and contributing to organizational planning.

Our overall mission is simple: we want Amazon to be the place where our customers can find, discover, and buy anything online. Whatever our customers want, we will find a way to deliver it. With your help, Amazon associates will deliver world-class service to our customers.

The number one priority for this role is ensuring associates deliver a world-class customer experience while building structures that enable teams to succeed independently. You will establish workflows, SLAs, and operational excellence mechanisms while serving as a strategic partner to cross-functional teams. You'll define vision, negotiate cross-team priorities, and make trade-offs between short-term tactical needs and long-term strategic goals.

The ideal Operations Manager II demonstrates measurable improvement in operational performance metrics, establishes process improvement mechanisms, and acts as a mentor to both managers and individual contributors. You will lead calibration activities, participate in strategic initiatives (1-3 year planning), and may provide input into OP1/OP2 planning processes.
