• Summarize inputs from multiple stakeholders across multiple businesses to develop coherent, clear and compelling SVP ready narratives.
• Lead the month-end processes for the finance team and partnering ones.
• Build and maintain mechanisms around Headcount (HC) planning and reporting.
• Manage ad hoc requests, financial deep dives and analyses from Sr. Leadership.
• Identify opportunities to resolve defects proactively. Create, improve, scale, or simplify finance processes/tools across teams and organizations.
• Actively coach more junior resources in the team, including 1 direct report (Finance Analyst Intern).

About the team

Now organized under the simple mantra “Fresh, Food, Fast” (F3), we are committed to delivering on its promise, and doing so in a very big way. Fresh Finance is well positioned to help the business drive growth, unlock the full potential of the Amazon flywheel and drive the businesses towards profitability.

• Advanced Microsoft Excel.
• Familiarity with large-scale data mining and reporting tools (examples: SQL, COGNOS) and other financial systems.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Master’s degree in finance, accounting, business, or related field.
• Prior experience in a global, multi-layered organization, with a successful track record of managing more junior resources.
