Dandenong South, Australia Amazon Full time

DESCRIPTION

Here at Amazon we are currently seeking for experienced Operations Managers to join our Customer Fulfillment team for Night Shift at our Fulfillment Center in Dandenong South.

This is an excellent opportunity to be part of the AU Fulfillment Center (FC) leadership team during its phase of expansion and growth, whereby you get to define the process flows and shape up standard work routines as the operations scale up.

As an Operations Manager, you’ll deliver inspiring, inclusive leadership for the teams you supervise. But at the same time, you don’t shy away from getting involved whenever necessary.

You’ll be directly responsible for supervising a team of Area Managers and their direct reports: meanwhile, you will report to the Site Lead of your Fulfillment Center. The quality of your leadership is key to achievement in this role: you’ll motivate and inspire your teams to do their best work, while planning schedules and activities that balance their needs with that of the business.

Another key aspect of your role will be to coordinate on numerous process improvement projects, with the aim of streamlining all activities, both for yourself and the team members you supervise. The ideas, innovation and leaps out of the status quo that you come up with could very well be rolled out across the Amazon network: this immense opportunity is yours for the taking.

Key job responsibilities:
- Maintaining Health and Safety standards within your remit area, while promoting an inspiring Health and Safety culture on-site,
- Become a subject matter expert on specific, larger-scale processes and activities within FCs,
- In your inventory control and systems environment, you’ll handle timely data collection, updating operations metrics on an hourly basis,
- You’ll aim to achieve productivity targets, reduce cost per unit, eliminate errors and ensure a high-quality customer experience,
- Work closely with other support teams (HR, Finance, Facilities, Safety and Security, IT) on staffing plans, schedules and performance levels,
- Implement process change and contribute in cross-functional Six Sigma initiatives within your site and the broader Amazon Operations network.

Please note the shift pattern is based on 4 days on and 3 days off (Wednesday to Saturday).
Working hours: 18:30pm to 4:30am

We are open to hiring candidates to work out of one of the following locations:

Dandenong South, VIC, AUS

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

- Completed Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Operations, Supply Chain/Logistics, or a related field,
- Proven experience in a similar, innovative logistics, distribution or manufacturing environment,
- Previous experience in leading large, diverse teams,
- Experience in employee and performance management experience,
- Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written,
- Proven ability in establishing and carry out root cause analysis, and then extract and analyse the data you generate.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

- Experience with performance metrics, process improvement and Lean techniques,
- Demonstrated problem solving skills and analytical skills,
- Experience with a contingent workforce during peak seasons,
- Knowledge of Lean, Six Sigma and Kaizen methodologies would be highly advantageous.
