Head of Channel Partnerships, MCCF

About the role

Amazon Multi-Channel Commerce and Fulfillment (MCCF) is seeking a strong leader to build and scale our channel partnerships with agencies, consultancies, and supply chain experts, leading a high-performing team of 7 Partner Managers.

Externalizing Amazon's supply chain services to reach merchants beyond our own channels is one of MCCF's biggest growth opportunities, and partners are central to unlocking it. This role owns the channel strategy for capturing that opportunity: driving upper-funnel demand for Amazon's externalized supply chain services through the partner ecosystem.

Working through partners, the team generates awareness and demand among partners' merchant bases, feeds qualified leads and opportunities to our sales teams, and finds new ways to scale our shared book of business. Success is measured by partner onboarding and enablement, and by the leads and demand generated for Sales.

This is a high-visibility, strategic role in a high-growth business. The leader sets the vision for the channel, collaborates with senior leaders across Amazon, and engages directly at the C-suite level with our partners and with leading eCommerce brands to shape long-term, mutually beneficial growth. The ideal candidate is a data-driven operator who thinks big, builds trusted relationships with decision-makers and executives at prospective partners, and delivers ambitious growth targets while raising the bar on partner experience.
