Job Description
DESCRIPTION
At Amazon, we are building a world class last mile operation with Amazon Flex as a cornerstone of this strategy. Amazon Flex works directly with independent contractors, called delivery partners, to make deliveries to our customers. With Amazon Flex, delivery partners are their own boss, build their own schedule, and choose from different types of delivery opportunities (e.g. Amazon Fresh, Whole Foods Market, and Amazon Logistics). Amazon Flex is powered by a mobile app that works in sync with our advanced systems and processes, allowing delivery partners to secure delivery offers, track their delivery progress, and more.
The ideal candidate thrives in an ambiguous environment, is a business owner who understands the key levers to drive high performance, and can operationalize and scale those levers. They dive deep, using excellent analytical and problem solving skills to identify root causes and develop action plans. The ideal candidate also communicates effectively with internal and external stakeholders across various levels in the organization, building strong relationships based on collaboration and trust. The ideal candidate also has the ability to stay focused when working autonomously.
Travel may be required up to 50% of the time.

A day in the life
The Business In-Station Experience (BISX) team, a component of the broader FISX team, is responsible for the critical pillar of Standardization. As the members of the team closest to the in-station operations across all of Flex's business lines, BISX is uniquely positioned to drive positive change across the full gamut of business lines.
Leveraging programmatic initiatives, the BISX team is able to implement, sustain, and monitor programs that are designed to enhance the delivery partner (DP) pick-up and returns experience. By focusing on Standardization, the team strives to create a familiar and cohesive experience for DPs, regardless of the specific business line they are engaging with. For our leadership and associate partners in the business, they will benefit from standardization as a decreasing number of DPs will require their support during the pickup & returns process.
About the team
FISX’s mental model is to drive an efficient in-station experience, ensuring that foundational aspects of safety, upstream performance and processes are robust through Standardization. To do this, FISX will seek to challenge the status quo by building parity for standardization across business lines driving non-negotiable standards to ensure an elevated and reliable customer experience. Standardization will also focus on the reduction of ambiguity in standards DPs should expect while in-station across all offers.
