Job Summary

For more than 11 years, Amazon Web Services (“AWS”) has been the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. AWS offers over 100 fully featured services to millions of active customers around the world—including the fastest-growing startups, largest enterprises, and leading government agencies—to power their infrastructure.

The AWS Global Systems Integrator organization collaborates with, and supports, multinational system integrator organizations and their customers in their journey to AWS. Within the GSI organization, the Sales, Strategy, Operations, and Enablement (SSOE) team is responsible for supporting the Leadership, Management, and the field in achieving our organizational objectives, delivering customer outcomes, and driving continuous improvements in field productivity.

We drive efficiency, predictability, and rigor in our operating cadence, promote inter-connected business planning and operations, and enable the field to serve the customer the way they want to be served. Our stakeholders are broad, internal, and external to AWS, multi-national, and distributed across the globe. We serve them with integrity and discipline, and dedication to superb customer outcomes.

We are seeking an experienced Innovation Analytics Lead to collaborate with the Business Leaders and Sales Support peers in developing and managing the reporting analytics and insights utilized during Business Reviews, Annual Planning, forecasting, and other cadenced reporting and metrics for the GSI organization.

The ideal candidate earns trust through outstanding performance, has broad technical skills, and deep analytic background. This candidate is passionate about data and the insights gleaned from well-organized and presented data analytics. The role will support several stakeholders including the extended AWS GSI Leadership organization, and the Partner team.

This individual will collaborate effectively with internal end-users and cross-functional teams to solve problems, communicate effectively across multiple technical and non-technical business units, implement new reporting solutions, and deliver successfully against high standards.
