    Job Description

    The Amazon Flex is looking for an Executive Assistant who wants to work in a fast-paced, exciting, and growing organization. We are looking for someone to support two Directors, both based in Bellevue, WA.

    We're a team of good humans who like working with other good humans. We care about doing the right thing, taking ownership, and building trust; and we try not to take ourselves too seriously along the way.

    This isn't your typical EA role. We're not looking for someone to just manage calendars and inboxes (though yes, those matter too). We're looking for a partner-someone who's proactive, curious, and always thinking, "there's probably a better way to do this." If you enjoy making chaos feel organized, finding smarter ways to work, particularly using GenAI, and eliminating manual, repetitive tasks, you'll fit right in.

    Amazon Flex has a bold vision for the future, and huge runway for growth. If you are looking for growth opportunities, and want to be a strategic thought partner, this is your EA role!

    Key job responsibilities

    • Own and expertly manage complex, dynamic calendars for two leaders with distinct yet interdependent portfolios-protecting focus time, sequencing meetings strategically, and resolving scheduling conflicts with sound judgment
    • Build strong, trusted working relationships with EAs across WW Flex and multiple VP partner teams across WW Amazon (US, EU, IN, JP)
    • Drive continuous improvement by designing and implementing new mechanisms, processes, and tracking systems that enhance team effectiveness
    • Own travel for both leaders, and plan and execute team events
    • Oversee team space planning

    A day in the life

    • Own complex calendars across time zones, coordinate high-stakes meetings with senior leaders, and track critical deliverables
    • Manage domestic and international travel, wrangle expense reports, and handle space planning as the org evolves
    • Anticipate needs before they"re asked, handle urgent requests without breaking a sweat, and coordinate across teams without needing the full picture
    • Work with GenAI to improve manual processes

    About the team

    Amazon Flex is an app based flexible earning opportunity. We serve customers across all aspects of delivery with a focus on delivering grocery and quick click to delivery experiences.

    About Company

    At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

    Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles
    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
