Executive Assistant, WW Corporate Business Development
Seattle, Washington
Amazon Business and Corporate Development has an exciting opportunity for an Executive Assistant looking to jump into the fast-paced world of Biz Dev.
This role will support several directors across a Vice President's org, providing unique exposure to some of Amazon's most innovative and interesting partnership engagements. A proven track record of effective time management, taking initiative, working independently, delivering exceptional results, and exceeding expectations is important. You should thrive under pressure, have an interest in strategic business, and-most importantly-possess a good sense of humor (our team prides itself on its fun culture!).
This role requires attention to detail, the ability to meet tight deadlines, efficient organizational skills, and the ability to switch gears at a moment's notice. A high level of integrity and discretion in handling confidential information, and professionalism in dealing with senior professionals inside and outside the company is key. The candidate will possess the ability to complete complex tasks and projects quickly with little to no guidance, react with appropriate urgency to situations that require a quick turnaround, and take effective action without having to know the total picture.
