DESCRIPTION

Amazon is seeking an Executive Assistant to support Directors within AWS Global Deal Strategy and Programs (GDSP). This role requires attention to detail, solid organizational skills, and the ability to meet tight deadlines while juggling multiple requests across global teams. The Executive Assistant will act as a seamless extension of the leaders and will work closely with other Executive Assistants throughout the organization.

The ideal candidate will be a detail-oriented, experienced planner with the demonstrated ability to respond effectively and efficiently while maintaining flexibility, composure, and confidentiality.

Role Responsibilities Include:

1. Managing multiple complex calendars across global time zones.

8. Working alongside other executive assistants within the org and throughout AWS to drive best practices and cross-collaboration of efficiencies.
