Job Description

Job summary
About Amazon Music

Amazon Music's Consumer Product & Tech (CPT) team seeks a dedicated, self-driven Executive Assistant with effective communication skills to support its Vice President. This role requires outstanding planning, time management, and a passion for organization. Superior attention to detail, great judgement, and the ability to meet tight deadlines while juggling multiple requests across global teams is critical. The Executive Assistant acts as a seamless extension of the Vice President, and a partner to Finance, HR, and Recruiting teams. In addition, you will lead a team of 5 EAs in the CPT org, as well as partner with Amazon Music's existing EA team to offer comprehensive support for a highly-distributed global organization. A high level of integrity and discretion handling confidential information and professionalism dealing with senior executives inside and outside the company is imperative. Humor, composure, and the ability to foster a fun and positive team environment is a must, as is flexibility and a willingness to turn on a dime as priorities shift. The successful candidate will understand business priorities, proactively anticipate needs, and drive improvements that build capacity for the leadership team. Completing complex tasks quickly with little to no guidance, reacting with appropriate urgency to situations that require quick turnaround, and taking effective action without having to know the whole picture is key to success.
