Role Overview

Operations is the heart and soul of everything Amazon does. It is thanks to effective operations that items are processed and dispatched to our customers on time. As an Operations Lead/Supervisor you'll see how all the different parts of operations work and play a role in making sure everything runs smoothly. You'll be the first point of contact for team members during their shift and help them follow the processes that your managers have put in place. This hands on role will give you experience in using the tools and systems that make our operations successful.

Key Job Responsibilities
  • Measure and monitor workflows, track onsite performance, and provide important shift information to frontline management to ensure operational excellence across shifts.
  • Support and train employees to deliver great service and supervise them in their daily tasks.
  • Support the Shift/Area Manager with projects to improve processes, cultivate a safe working environment, and increase workforce engagement.
  • Work with other departments to find solutions to address common issues or support needs in areas of key performance.
  • Use data analysis to identify ways to optimise safety, quality and productivity.
A Day in the Life

As an Operations Lead/Supervisor you'll be based in one of our operational sites. You'll support your Shift/Area Manager to carry out the plan for the shift, involving helping with pre shift meetings, monitoring procedures, and ensuring everyone follows safety rules, quality processes and the priority plan for the day. You'll also be the most senior person on shift at times, giving direction to complete tasks, and support shift/area managers in planning shifts to ensure enough team members during peak times.
