The Amazon Logistics Brazil (AMZL) team is seeking a Logistics Operations Leader to join Amazon’s External Logistics Partners team. Operations will be conducted seven days per week, including holidays; therefore, working across different shifts will be part of this role.
You will manage a team of external logistics partners, as well as a team of logistics operations analysts—who will also be Amazon employees—to ensure these partners’ process performance and compliance.
