More than 300 million customers shop in Amazon’s store, and every day, customers browse, purchase, and review products sold by third-party sellers right alongside products sold by Amazon. Since 2000, Amazon has offered this virtual shelf space to individuals and companies of all sizes, helping them reach hundreds of millions of customers, build their brands, and grow their business. Fast-forward to the present day, and these third-party seller products account for more than half of all units sold in our store.
With increasing complexity of today’s ecommerce and rise of opportunities, the Strategic Account Services (SAS) program aims to leverage the full potential of each Amazon Seller in our Marketplace. These sellers span a wide range of categories from fashion to consumables. Our team provides leading-edge strategic consultancy using a data-driven, collaborative, and customer-focused approach to support our Sellers to achieve their goals. Our holistic service offering addresses advice on all facets of the Amazon Marketplace including topics such as International expansion, Portfolio Optimization, Fulfillment Strategy, Product Presentation, Promotions, Advertising Strategy and Brand Building. In parallel to this strategic support, all Sellers integrated receive enhanced operational support by a separate team.
As a Marketplace Consultant, you strategically consult your own portfolio of Sellers independently. Your objective is to support and drive their business growth and program satisfaction by working backwards from their individual targets and developing a roadmap together. In addition, you will use your analytical know-how to proactively identify untapped potential of each Sellers. Additionally, you may also be responsible for recruiting and onboarding Sellers to this new service. You will work closely alongside colleagues in Europe, and have many opportunities to develop your career at Amazon.

We aim to accelerate long term growth, and improve Seller Experience (SX) and Customer Experience (CX) by offering Sellers the option to work with a dedicated account manager to receive tailored strategies and problem-solving support. We work closely with Sellers to drive innovation.
