Job description



DESCRIPTION

At Amazon, we are working to be the most customer-centric company on earth. To get there, we need exceptionally talented and driven people of all backgrounds. Amazon Web Services (AWS), a global leader in cloud computing, enables customers of all sizes and industries to run their applications on Amazon’s industry-leading cloud computing infrastructure. Within the AWS customer base, startups serve as an important segment for AWS, and a customer group who is on the leading edge of implementing new technologies. We are seeking a world-class Business Development Manager to drive and own a variety of initiatives aimed at getting more startups using AWS and giving them the best experience possible. This is an opportunity to delight some of the most innovative companies in the world.
About the Role
The Worldwide Startup GTM Strategy team, in collaboration with our cross functional counterparts, develops and executes the global go to market strategy for startups at AWS. The team is responsible for maintaining a high level of awareness of global trends in technology, startups, and venture capital and using that intelligence to assist our field teams in their approach to working with our startup customers – all in an environment of rapid growth and ever-increasing complexity. The GTM Strategy BDM in this role will work closely with globally distributed teams across marketing, business development, sales, analytics and business intelligence to develop, implement, and manage data-driven business processes and mechanisms that increase organizational productivity and enable our teams to meet and exceed their goals. The individual in this role will interface with Startup Sales and Business Development to understand gaps they face when planning their business and will work closely with business intelligence teams to design and implement new business processes and new customer intelligence tooling to address those gaps and inefficiencies, ultimately leading our teams to a greater ability to achieve optimal outcomes for our customers.

They will need high levels of business judgement and possess the ability to peek around corners and anticipate issues before they arise. They will be asked to operate effectively in an ambiguous environment and must have a demonstrated track record of managing multiple concurrent projects and driving them to completion. Because the person in this role will influence team members worldwide, they will also need to be highly collaborative and able to influence without authority while also being able to work with significant autonomy. The candidate must work well with teams of stakeholders and colleagues, including sales leadership, operations managers, BD managers, analytics/business intelligence managers, marketing managers, as well as Finance, HR and legal specialists.
