About The Position

Amazon Advertising operates at the intersection of advertising and e-commerce, and offers advertisers a rich array of media solutions across Amazon’s mobile and desktop websites, proprietary devices including kindle and Fire TV, and the Amazon Programmatic Demand Side Platform. We are looking for a highly motivated Account Manager who is passionate about helping our advertisers make effective, analytically driven marketing decisions.

As an Account Manager, you are someone with strong analytical reasoning and problem solving skills.

You are strategic in your use of Amazon’s proprietary data and can provide personalized campaign and targeting recommendations that meet your customer’s business goals. You thrive in ambiguous situations and are a self-starter who can find solutions without guidance.

This role is highly collaborative, working across Creative, Sales, Product, Retail, and External Teams. The Account Manager’s strategic and consultative digital expertise is considered critical to unlocking greater value and impact for our advertisers.
