Sr. Business Manager PX, PX, Private Pricing Programs AWS

Job :  | Amazon Web Services, Inc.

The Business Manager serves as a critical bridge between the AWS Private Pricing Programs and Experiences (3PX) team and Senior Leaders across the Private Pricing organization. In this role, you will work at the center of the business strategy — first helping to define and evolve that strategy, then operationalizing it cross-functionally to deliver measurable impact. You will have direct responsibility for strategic planning and goal-setting cycles, the rhythm of the business, deep-dive analyses, executive communications, and cross-functional mechanisms.

You will do this through your ability to orchestrate the right people and teams to deliver against a defined goal, project, or program.

This is a highly visible role for someone who can hold the pen on the plans and goal proposals presented to senior leaders, dive into data to uncover the holistic story, and package complex information into clear, decision-ready narratives for a VP audience. Through this work, you will help the Private Pricing business rally around a clear strategic vision, achieve ambitious goals, and drive step-change growth.
