Partner Manager - German Speaker

Background

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.
