Singapore Amazon Full time

Amazon is seeking an exceptionally bright and motivated administrative professional with a strong history of high performance to support our Australia, New Zealand and Southeast Asia Public Policy Team, based in Singapore. This role will support the effectiveness and efficiency, both internally and externally, of the Public Policy Team, as well as ensure smart business planning and coordination across the wider business and public policy teams. The role will also work collaboratively with other International Public Policy Executive Assistants across our region to support overall administrative department goals.

This role requires outstanding skills in planning, time-management, and organization, superior attention to detail, an ability to meet tight deadlines and juggle multiple internal and external requests in a calm, friendly and efficient way. The successful candidate will be trusted to handle confidential and sensitive information, and be able to work professionally with senior business executives, government and public policy stakeholders. The ideal candidate will have experience of working well in a fast-paced, multi-stakeholder corporate or public policy environment.

The person will also be responsible for managing both internal and external facing events in countries across the region.

A good sense of humor is critical, as is the ability to continually prioritize and change direction at a moment's notice. The successful candidate will possess the ability to complete complex tasks and projects quickly with little to no guidance, be very strong in anticipating the needs of the team, and react with appropriate urgency and action to unanticipated developments or situations.
