Amazon Corporate Business Development is seeking a highly motivated and experienced BD and partnerships professional to join the Corporate BD team to focus on strategic initiatives, deal work, and first-of-a-kind commercial partnerships across a range of industries and sectors. This role will work closely with Amazon senior management, cross business-unit BD teams, and Corporate Partnership Directors to develop unique, high-impact partnership opportunities, finding the right intersection between our strategic goals and partner capabilities. You will be part of a team responsible for generating, managing, and executing some of Amazon's most complex, precedent-setting partnerships. This includes supporting and managing relationships and negotiations for deals that have long-term, transformative implications for Amazon. This position offers an unparalleled opportunity to leverage your ability to forge strong relationships at senior levels, lead first-of-their-kind commercial initiatives, and build cross-functional relationships inside one of the world's most innovative, customer-centric companies.
