Amazon is excited to offer military service leavers the opportunity to launch into big careers with limitless possibilities. Studies show that veterans leave their first post-transition jobs at higher rates than their civilian counterparts. As such, searching for that post-transition role is as much about finding a company where you can picture yourself being successful as it is about finding the right role; we hope it will be with us, via the Amazon Corporate Military Program (ACMP).
The ACMP is an opportunity for service leavers, looking for their first role after leaving Armed Forces, to begin a commercial career in eCommerce. We are looking for high performing, customer obsessed individuals to help us solve real business problems within our corporate e-commerce business, via a salaried program.
On joining the program, you will undertake a short period of training with your ACMP cohort to familiarise yourself with Amazon’s peculiar ways, and to train you in analytical techniques and tools. You will then join your team, and be presented with a specific problem or opportunity to solve. You will be expected to dive deep into the problem, think big to develop a solution, gain buy-in from senior stakeholders, and then execute your plan in order to deliver results to delight our customers. During this time, you will be supported by fellow veterans within Amazon Stores and the Warriors@Amazon affinity group, and be given the opportunity to network in order to find permanent roles within the business.
