Senior Executive Assistant, Pharmacy

About the role

Amazon Health Services (AHS) is on a mission to make it dramatically easier for customers to find, choose, afford, and engage with the services, products, and professionals they need to get and stay healthy. We are seeking an experienced and proactive Senior Executive Assistant to support the Vice President of Amazon Pharmacy in a fast-paced, high-impact, and growing organization.

This role enables organizational effectiveness through exceptional administrative and operational support, and requires a high degree of integrity, discretion, and the ability to navigate complex and competing priorities with confidence.

As the Lead EA for Amazon Pharmacy, you will operate as a true strategic partner to the VP and senior leadership team - someone who anticipates needs, connects dots across the organization, and drives outcomes without waiting to be asked. You will help develop and mentor a team of EAs across the AP organization, building mechanisms that ensure high-quality support for senior leadership.

Success in this role depends on your ability to influence without authority - building trust and driving alignment with business executives and other EAs to move priorities forward without direct reporting lines. This role requires exceptional judgment, full autonomy, and the ability to operate with discretion at the highest levels of the organization.

We are looking for someone who is self-motivated, with a proven history of high performance, high integrity, and the ability to build trust across the team and company-wide. A good sense of humor is critical, as is flexibility, reliability, and grace under pressure. You are comfortable with ambiguity and can take effective action without needing to know the complete picture. You thrive in a busy environment, possess the business acumen to react with appropriate urgency to emerging situations, and bring professionalism in dealing with senior executives inside and outside of the company.

Over time, you will build deep, trusting professional relationships with leaders and their teams that blossom into strong partnerships - providing opportunity for special projects, increased responsibility, and long-term career growth. In this role, you will act as an extension of our leaders in partnership with a supportive and collaborative EA community.
