As Senior Finance Manager you will lead the financial backbone of Amazon's Global Fleet & Product organization - owning the planning, reporting, and controllership mechanisms that guide multi-billion dollar investments across 19 countries. You will lead a team of finance professionals supporting business leaders, and serve as the connective tissue between finance, operations, engineering, and sustainability across Middle Mile and Last Mile fleets.
This role is for a strategic operator and people leader who thrives in ambiguity, brings rigor to one-way-door capital decisions, and sees financial controllership as a strategic advantage rather than a back-office function.
Key job responsibilities
- Own WW financial planning and reporting for multi-billion dollar budgets including operating plans, forecasts, monthly close, variance analysis, and long-range financial outlooks
- Lead, develop, and scale a team of finance professionals; raise the talent bar and build succession depth across Middle Mile and Last Mile coverage
- Own controllership for the WW fleet, including execution and continuous improvement of SOX and Amazon internal controls that drive accuracy in corporate financial reporting
- Connect financial plans across regions, business lines, and asset categories to surface risks, opportunities, and trade-offs that influence procurement, allocation, maintenance, sale, and utilization decisions
- Partner with senior operations and finance leaders to shape one-way-door capital investments and ensure capital commitments translate into measurable financial outcomes
- Lead the invention of standardized, automated reporting and planning mechanisms that scale with a rapidly growing and continuously evolving fleet
- Communicate complex financial topics with clarity to business executives in weekly and monthly business reviews
A day in the life
In this role, you sit at the financial center of one of Amazon's largest physical operations. Your primary stakeholders are senior WW Middle Mile and Last Mile fleet leaders, and your value is in turning a fast-moving asset base into a clear strategic and financial picture leadership can act on.
A typical day might include:
- Coaching and developing your team of finance managers and analysts - unblocking analyses, raising the bar on storytelling, and growing the next generation of fleet finance leaders
- Reviewing variance drivers across Middle Mile and Last Mile fleet and translating them into forward-looking risks, opportunities, and recommendations for senior leaders
- Preparing executive narratives for monthly and weekly business reviews that distill a complex, multi-region operation into clear strategic recommendations
The problems you'll solve are strategic in nature - how to fund the right mix of fleet assets across competing priorities, and how to make sure every major investment in Amazon's fleet is grounded in rigorous, forward-looking analysis.
