Amazon’s Global Real Estate and Facilities (GREF) team is looking for a creative, innovative, results-orientated Program Manager based in Seattle, WA to envision, build and deliver a global Nourishment program that enables Amazonians to thrive throughout their workday.
GREF’s Nourishment program delivers a holistic offering of exceptional and inspired offerings through a variety of healthy, culturally inclusive, and customizable food and beverage options in spaces that inspire connection and rejuvenation. The program establishes partnerships with foodservice vendors and community partners to bring inclusive experiences into Amazon corporate buildings. The program uses data and insights to right-size offerings and meet Amazonians' evolving needs and wants while remaining frugal. The program leverages technology to enable a customer-centric experience from ordering to receiving nourishment, and continuously innovates to adapt to changing preferences and industry landscapes. The program will build sustainability into the fabric of food service operational design to achieve zero waste to landfill by 2030 and meet the Climate Pledge for Net Zero Carbon by 2040.
The successful candidate is an experienced, vibrant, and engaging professional who will excel within an entrepreneurial culture – providing vision, leadership, and communication – not afraid to dive deep into details. They should also understand the nuance of being approachable, while at the same time consultative – providing direction/recommendations to our regional teams and fostering transparent relationships. The candidate must be able to balance frugality with creativity in offering solutions and approach problem-solving with an emphasis on root cause.
This role requires global travel approximately 10% of the time.
