Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Amazon Full time
Are you interested in defining the future operating model for Amazon's global delivery operations and creating a world-class experience for our customers, associates, and driver partners? Amazon Logistics (AMZL) delivery operations are on pace to become one of the largest parcel carriers in the world. Robust process improvement and development leverages delivery station and driver capacities that are critical to accomplishing that scale. All while delivering a world-class customer experience.

The Global Benchmarking, Standards, and Audit (GBSA) team leads defining, implementing, measuring and improving standard work processes that will drive customer experience and performance improvement within Amazon's delivery station network.
