4 days ago

Riyadh, Ar Riyāḑ, Saudi Arabia Amazon Full time

Work hard, have fun, make history. That's what we do every day at Amazon. As a key leader within Amazon's Global Real Estate & Facilities (GREF) team, the Workplace Strategist role will oversee Bangalore's teams' space allocations and coordinate with space planners to manage, assign, and report on plans for AWS employees and team.
The Workplace Strategist will be expected to align real estate strategy to business needs in partnership with key GREF Stakeholders and maintain a customer centric approach. The role will partner with Bangalore Corp. managers, occupancy planning teams, and space management teams to implement workplace design, space, and move needs for their assigned team(s), in order to inform supply and demand allocations and change requests. The role will be responsible for developing strategic recommendations to Bangalore Corp. managers regarding their workplace design and space allocation, and translate it into GREF's broader business requirements that enable effective solutions in alignment with Amazon's overall workplace strategy.

The optimal candidate is an experienced, vibrant, and engaging professional who will excel within an entrepreneurial culture – providing vision, leadership, and communication – not afraid to dive deep into details and take ownership. They should also understand the nuance of being approachable and consultative– providing direction/recommendations and fostering transparent relationships. The candidate must be able to balance frugality with creativity in offering solutions and approach problem-solving with an emphasis on root cause. An ideal candidate is able to navigate high level of ambiguity and demonstrate a bias for action, taking calculated risks in a fast-paced environment.

Key job responsibilities
  1. Support assigned business units for space-related tasks, including space allocation and workspace design.
  2. Collaborate with business unit leaders to understand their real estate and portfolio needs, ensuring these requirements are accurately captured and addressed.
  3. Collaborate with a variety of stakeholders, including but not limited to, Amazon Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A), Finance Leaders, and Human Resources to validate headcount data (i.e., forecasted demand).
  4. Own the end-to-end business-related deliverables for move projects, including origin lists, move notifications, destination lists, and other related tasks.
  5. Support defect resolution processes related to space allocation.
  6. Maintain clear and consistent communication with business units, providing updates and addressing any concerns or questions related to real estate and portfolio matters.
  7. Identify opportunities for improving move and space management processes, implementing changes to enhance efficiency and effectiveness.
  8. Work in a matrix reporting structure, encompassing both dotted and hard reporting lines.
