A day in the life

No two days look the same. In a given week, you might kick off Monday by reviewing WBR data and briefing AB Country Leadership on pipeline variances. By mid-morning, you are deep in a territory rebalancing exercise to scale new CPS customer segment with the BI team. After lunch, you lead a training session on the latest GTMO AI tool release, walking AEs through use cases that save 2+ hours per week. On Wednesday, you partner with the WW SFDC team to deploy a new workflow automation that eliminates a manual deal-stage update. Thursday brings a deep dive to align new SFDC lifecycle stage process. By Friday, you have shipped a refreshed Account Executive performance dashboard, and drafted a proposal for expanding AVA coverage to a new customer segment — all while keeping the operational engine running seamlessly in the background.

You will report to the India Amazon Business Director and collaborate daily with CPS Sales & Product professionals, as well as cross-functional partners in Category, Technology, BI, Finance, and WW Sales Ops counterparts in the US, JP, EU.

You will partner directly with Sales leadership to build and scale the programs, tools, and processes that drive customer performance. We move fast, operate with high ownership, and believe that the best operational work is invisible to the people it serves — because it simply works.
