Manager III, Facilities

Are you passionate about creating exceptional workplace environments that enable teams to do their best work? Amazon is looking for a Facilities Manager to lead operations, drive process improvements, and deliver results across a portfolio of facilities. In this role, you will manage a team responsible for ensuring our spaces run smoothly, safely, and efficiently while continuously raising the bar on service delivery. You will define strategy, set goals, and partner with stakeholders across the organization to solve complex problems and improve the experience for every person who walks through our doors. If you are a collaborative, resourceful leader who thrives on turning ambiguity into action, we want to hear from you.

Key job responsibilities
- Lead and develop a team of facilities professionals, providing coaching, career development support, and performance feedback to build a high-performing, inclusive team capable of delivering independently.
- Define and manage facility operations metrics, service level agreements, and audit mechanisms to measure team progress, ensure operational excellence, and report performance to leadership and key stakeholders.

After lunch, you hold one-on-one meetings with direct reports, discussing development goals and removing barriers to their work. Later, you walk the facility with your maintenance lead to inspect a recently completed improvement project before wrapping up with a narrative review for an upcoming operational planning cycle.
