Sr. De-Risking Manager, Stores Compliance

Job ID: 2769287 | Amazon EU Sarl - A84

DESCRIPTION

Amazon strives to be Earth's most customer-centric company where people can find and discover virtually anything they want to buy online. Selling Partners (SPs) are a critical part of Amazon’s ecosystem to deliver on our vision of offering the Earth’s largest selection and lowest prices. Over 2 million Sellers sell on Amazon and we obsess over providing world class support to them. In EU, we continue to observe an unprecedented wave of legislation that impacts SP experience (for sellers and vendors), constrains selection and jeopardizes growth. This increases the complexity and cost of selling in EU and makes compliance the primary barrier to SP launches in the region.

We represent more than 9 job families, 25+ nationalities and 51% female talent. Our core values are innovation, inclusion and building others. We write on walls, obsess about our sellers and vendors and are known for our resilience.
