Amazon's Global Direct Imports team is seeking an experienced Instock Manager who independently owns end-to-end supply chain performance—from manufacturer through fulfillment center availability—for a high-growth, strategically critical import program. This role requires translating complex data analysis into actionable insights that drive category-level decisions, while developing and executing inventory management strategies that optimize customer experience, sales, and margin across multiple vendors and geographies.
This individual demonstrates strong business judgment, anticipates trade-offs, and influences vendor operational performance while managing multiple concurrent projects. They bring deep analytical acumen, translate operational strategy into day-to-day decisions, and confidently present data-backed recommendations to senior leadership. They thrive in ambiguity, exercise sound judgment when new data emerges, and quickly course-correct to deliver results.
This position is based in Amazon's Mexico City office.
