Are you ready to influence how one of the world's most complex retail networks allocates resources and drives operational excellence? Amazon's North American Customer Fulfillment (NACF) Finance is seeking a Financial Analyst II to be a trusted finance partner supporting operational and functional leaders. You'll work at the intersection of finance and operations, building financial models, solving complex data challenges, and delivering insights that shape how billions of packages reach hundreds of millions of customers every year.
In this role, you'll own end-to-end financial reporting and forecasting for fulfillment operations, establish sources of truth across disparate data systems, and proactively identify opportunities to improve controls, scale processes, and simplify reporting. You'll partner directly with operations leaders, challenge assumptions with data-driven analysis, and implement solutions that make a measurable impact on cost management and decision-making across the network.
Key job responsibilities
- Manage development of weekly and monthly financial reviews, forecasting, and reporting models, delivering clear narratives that compare actuals against plans, identify variances, and provide actionable recommendations to operations and functional partners
- Identify and solve complex data integrity issues by diving deep into how data flows through financial platforms, establishing the right source of truth, and collaborating with stakeholders to implement fixes that insist on the highest standards
- Identify and implement opportunities to resolve finance issues and improve, scale, or simplify finance tools, technology, and processes across teams and organizations, centralizing process improvements that enable business partners to take action quickly
- Proactively audit reporting accuracy across your work and other teams, identify incomplete or inaccurate data, determine root causes, and execute resolutions that measurably improve controllership
- Use financial knowledge and business acumen to build financial models and analyses that address difficult business questions, challenge business partner plans and assumptions when needed, and communicate findings in a clear and concise manner to drive results
A day in the life
You begin by reviewing site and regional-level financial performance, pulling actuals, comparing against plans, and building the story behind the numbers before your partners ask. Mid-morning, you're leading a working session with operations leaders, walking them through a weekly cost review you own end-to-end, confirming data integrity and delivering recommendations backed by analysis. By afternoon, you might be deep in a process improvement, identifying where multiple teams pull the same data from different sources and getting different answers. You dig into the data flow, establish the right source of truth, and build a solution that simplifies reporting for everyone downstream. Throughout the day, you balance analytical depth with speed-forecasting next month's outlook, pressure-testing a business case, or collaborating with peers to resolve data issues that have been quietly distorting reports.
