Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR China Amazon Data Services Hong Kong Limited - G43 Full time
Do you have the business savvy and the technical background necessary to help establish Amazon as a key technology platform provider?

Amazon Web Service (AWS) is a comprehensive, evolving, and growing business unit within Amazon.com, which provides cloud services. Since early 2006, AWS has provided a highly reliable, scalable, low-cost infrastructure platform that powers hundreds of thousands of businesses in 190 countries around the world. If you are interested in a career working in a high growth, fast paced and Customer focused work environment then AWS may be the right fit for you.

The AWS Data Center Supply Solutions team is looking for a Business Development Manager to lead a team that drives our infrastructure strategy and investment activities supporting new market expansion in AWS' Greater China regions. Managing a skilled team, you will have the exciting opportunity to help promote the growth and shape the future of the Amazon Web Services. You will serve as a senior member of the Data Center Supply Solutions organization, and will play a critical role in driving ownership of key deliverables across multiple stakeholder organizations, working hand in hand with demand planners, engineering, public policy, legal, finance/treasury, project management, and operations. You should have a demonstrated ability to think strategically about business, product, and technical challenges, with the ability to build and convey compelling value propositions. A successful candidate will have the aptitude to strategically plan, make decisions, negotiate contracts, act tactically, write effectively, and display strong analytical and critical thinking skills. You must be a proven problem solver, and possess the ability to influence at the CxO level and negotiate multi-million dollar contracts.

As this position involves direct contact with senior AWS leaders you must have a professional demeanor, strong business acumen, and be able to communicate ideas in a clear and articulate manner. This position will be based in Hong Kong, but will require 20-25% business travel to provide oversight to team members, support regional expansion activities, training, and participate in team off-sites.

- Negotiate and close multi-million dollar contracts to support capacity expansion
- Understand the technical requirements of our engineering teams and negotiate solutions that meet technical requirements as well as the business objectives
- Have oversight and ownership of business case creation and presentation to AWS leadership (including commercial, technical and risk profile)
- Prepare and give project reviews to the senior management team regarding progress and deal execution roadblocks
- Develop and implement new mechanisms to improve our customer experience
- Business Travel: 20%-25%

Diverse Experiences
AWS values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn’t followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don’t let it stop you from applying.

Why AWS
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating — that’s why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses.
Work/Life Balance
We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why flexible work hours and arrangements are part of our culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there’s nothing we can’t achieve in the cloud.
Inclusive Team Culture
Here at AWS, it’s in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empower us to be proud of our differences.
