If you thrive in a dynamic and expanding environment, this is your chance to gain invaluable experience while working alongside seasoned professionals.

About the Role
As a Senior Pre-Construction Manager, you will be integrated into the Design and Construction team (D&C) within Amazon Global Engineering Services (GESS). Our mission is to redefine the future of the construction sector.

Travel Opportunities
This position is based anywhere in Europe, with approximately 30% of your time dedicated to travel, both domestically and across EMEA.

Key Responsibilities

  • Maintain project scope and expedite progress by making timely decisions, identifying and resolving obstacles, and escalating issues as necessary.
  • Collaborate with internal and external teams to drive results through effective communication, risk assessment, and decision-making.
  • Oversee professional service providers to ensure their competencies align with project requirements.

  • Negotiate terms with contractors, vendors, and suppliers.
A Day in the Life

You will lead and mentor large, cross-functional teams, serving as a technical and project management expert to successfully complete construction projects. Your role will involve significant communication across departments, addressing project issues with both frontline and executive management.

Utilizing your expertise, you will identify gaps in project plans and propose effective solutions. You will also negotiate contracts with developers, contractors, and consultants, ensuring Amazon's interests are prioritized.

Daily Tasks May Include:
Site validation, due diligence, risk analysis, design management, contract negotiations, and stakeholder management.

Familiarity with zoning, planning, fire codes, and building regulations will be essential for jurisdictional coordination.

You will act as the primary escalation point for evaluating the feasibility of potential future projects, ensuring that issues are documented and resolved effectively.

About Our Team
We are a diverse, enthusiastic, and creative team of designers, engineers, and project managers dedicated to delivering results. We take ownership of our responsibilities and are empowered to adjust our timelines to achieve a better work-life balance.
