Program Manager, External Fulfilment Launch
DESCRIPTION
---------------
External Fulfillment (EF) is Amazon's strategic solution for expanding fulfillment capacity through partnerships with Third\-Party Logistics (3PL) providers. Operating over 30 nodes across Europe, EF integrates 3PL facilities seamlessly into Amazon's network using our externalized Amazon Fulfillment Technology (AFT\-X) to deliver the same customer experience as Amazon\-operated facilities. With ambitious growth plans to launch additional nodes in 2026 across various building types (TNS, IXD, AWD, 1DC, ACIPS), EF plays a critical role in Amazon's network expansion strategy.
The EF launch process is a complex compound of multiple workstreams/phases, from initial network planning requirements through RFI/RFQ execution, contract negotiations, and operational go\-live. Each launch requires careful coordination of stakeholders, adherence to strict timelines, and management of both Amazon\-internal and 3PL\-specific deliverables, all while ensuring compliance with legal frameworks and maintaining Amazon's operational standards.
Key job responsibilities
As EF Launch Program Manager, you will be responsible for leading the end\-to\-end launch of new 3PL nodes, from initial scoping through operational go\-live. Key responsibilities include:
- Managing complex multi\-stakeholder projects to establish new 3PL operations, coordinating with Network Planning, Finance, Procurement, and Operations teams;
- Leading the RFI/RFQ process to identify and select 3PL partners, including solution design validation and commercial negotiations;
