Overview
AWS is seeking a motivated and data-driven Construction Services Procurement Manager to develop and implement a Procurement Change data centre construction space. The ideal candidate has a background in management consulting or change management, strong supply chain and procurement skills, analytical and financial acumen, and experience in construction. The role requires a hands-on approach to dive-deep into processes used in data centre operations and proven skills in managing operational and project teams for procurement improvement projects.
As a Procurement Manager for the Spain region, you will collaborate with Construction and Procurement teams to streamline vendor relationships (focusing on tier 2 and tier 3 vendors), ensure timely delivery of materials, and mitigate bottlenecks in the procurement process. You will apply lessons learned from previous projects to enhance efficiency and optimize vendor performance, and you will create and implement change programmes addressing policy, process, and system changes to mature the procurement function. You will work with internal business partners and suppliers to reduce costs and improve procurement efficiency for AWS, and you will develop mechanisms and metrics to manage improved internal processes. You will drive results by identifying wasteful processes, analyzing data and market trends to increase procurement impact, and you will create global procurement processes and tools to drive innovation across teams.
We value thinking long term, the ability to drive multiple initiatives, and effective communication to influence customers and suppliers at all levels. The role requires collaboration with significant autonomy, high analytical capability, strategic and global thinking, urgency to meet customer timelines, curiosity, and a strong customer focus plus business judgment. A demonstrated track record of managing multiple projects to completion and delivering business objectives is essential. It is critical to embrace Amazon Leadership Principles and to bring an entrepreneurial, get-it-done mentality.
