Come be a part of a rapidly expanding $25 billion dollar global business. At Amazon Business, we set out every day to innovate and disrupt the status quo. We stand at the intersection of tech and retail in the B2B space developing innovative purchasing and procurement solutions to help businesses and organizations reimagine buying.

​

Amazon Business (AB) Strategic Adoption Managers (SAMs) work with Strategic Account Executives (SAEs) to develop the strategy and solutions that help our largest Customers transform how they purchase for work using AB.

​

The SAM will develop relationships with Customer purchasing, finance, and and other business leadership personas to understand Customer challenges. As "go deep" experts within AB, SAMs use problem solving, data analysis, best practice, and creativity to structure programs that incorporate AB into Customers' existing purchasing processes and/or develop new processes to improve efficiencies and reduce costs.

​

The Strategic Adoption Management team is most like an "Account Management" role within the Strategic Sales organization; While SAMs may identify new points of contact within customer accounts, SAMs do not develop net-new customers or business.
