Job Description

Work hard, have fun, make history. That's what we do every day at Amazon. As a key leader within Amazon's Global Real Estate & Facilities (GREF) team, the Area Manager over Occupancy Planning (OP) will oversee the strategic and tactical management of space and allocations within the corporate real estate portfolio for their assigned area. The area lead collaborates closely with various stakeholders to drive successful occupancy planning initiatives and deliver data-driven recommendations for future space requirements.
The Senior Manager will be expected to align real estate strategy to business needs in partnership with key GREF Stakeholders and maintain a customer centric approach. The role will partner with both business leaders and employees to understand and influence space needs and requirements to inform supply and demand allocations. The role will be responsible for developing strategic recommendations on business line space allocations at a city level by leveraging Amazon’s size and scale and translate business requirements into effective solutions aligned with the workplace strategy. The Occupancy Planner will oversee the Bangalore Corp Portfolio program, to include planning, budgeting, and activities that support corporate office locations across their assigned area.
The optimal candidate is an experienced, vibrant, and engaging professional who will excel within an entrepreneurial culture – providing vision, leadership, and communication – not afraid to dive deep into details and take ownership. They should also understand the nuance of being approachable, while at the same time consultative– providing direction/recommendations and fostering transparent relationships. The candidate must be able to balance frugality with creativity in offering solutions and approach problem-solving with an emphasis on root cause. An ideal candidate is able to navigate high level of ambiguity and demonstrate a bias for action, taking calculated risks in a fast-paced environment.
