Senior Program Manager, F2 Supply Chain

This job is with Amazon, an inclusive employer and a member of myGwork – the largest global platform for the LGBTQ business community. Please do not contact the recruiter directly.

Description

Amazon's Fashion and Fitness (F2) Supply Chain team is seeking an experienced Sr. Program Manager to lead programmatic strategy and execution for the Licensed Sports business. This role sits at the intersection of fan demand, event-driven volatility, and complex vendor dynamics - requiring a level of rigor and scalability that manual processes cannot sustain at scale.

Operating within the F2 Supply Chain organization, this Sr. Program Manager will build the strategies and mechanisms needed to drive topline growth while managing inventory risk across a highly seasonal and unpredictable business. The role will act as both a program owner and cross-functional consultant, partnering closely with Buying, Forecasting, Vendor Management, and New Brand Launch teams to ensure Licensed Sports use cases are fully represented in shared tooling and automation roadmaps.

This role will be responsible for managing programmatically at scale, driving automation and process standardization, and serving as the subject matter expert and escalation point for the Licensed Sports category.

Key job responsibilities

Program Strategy & Ownership

• Lead a comprehensive redesign of the Licensed Sports buying model for both carryover and new product ASINs, introducing tools, processes, and mechanisms that prioritize forward-looking demand signals - including betting odds, AWS broadcast forecasts, and other predictive inputs - alongside historical data to drive smarter, more proactive buying decisions
• Develop and own a structured framework for event-specific inventory participation, defining clear criteria for when to buy in-network (e.g., Super Bowl), rely on dropship (e.g., NBA All-Star), or abstain from participation unless Merchant of Record rights are secured (e.g., Daytona 500)
• Launch and govern a scalable program to automate inventory chase levers for outperforming teams and execute pre-OIH markdown and deals plans for underperforming teams before the season ends while demand remains
  
  

Programmatic Scale & Automation

• Identify and eliminate non-value-add tasks across Buying, Forecasting, and Vendor Management workflows; develop scalable SOPs and playbooks to reduce manual effort and improve consistency across the Licensed Sports category
• Build and maintain cross-functional program resources, reporting infrastructure, and governance mechanisms to support all internal and external stakeholders
• Drive engagement across partner programs including Ships in Own Packaging (SIPP), Sustainability, Sub-Same Day Delivery (SSD), High Value Inventory, Loss Prevention (LP), Enterprise Shipping Service (ESS), and Deals/Overstock Management
  
  

Cross-Functional Leadership & Consultation

• Serve as the Licensed Sports supply chain subject matter expert and escalation point for Vendor Management, Business Development, and SCM partners
• Partner with PMs in Buying, Forecasting, Inventory, and New Brand Launch to ensure Licensed Sports requirements are embedded in shared tooling and automation roadmaps
  
  

Basic Qualifications

• 5 years of program or project management experience
• Experience using data and metrics to determine and drive improvements
• Experience owning program strategy, end to end delivery, and communicating results to senior leadership
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent
  
  

Preferred Qualifications

• 2 years of driving process improvements experience
• Master's degree, or MBA in business, operations, human resources, adult education, organizational development, instructional design or related field
• Experience in project/program management, supply chain, and/or inventory management
• Experience with event-driven or seasonal businesses; familiarity with licensed or sports merchandise a plus
• Usage of generative AI tools to enhance workflow efficiency, with a willingness to learn effective prompting and evaluation practices
• Ability to recognize opportunities where generative AI could enhance products, workflows, or customer experiences
