Senior Safety Program Manager, EU WHS Programs Team

At Amazon, safety is our top priority. We are looking for a Senior WHS Program Manager to own our most complex WHS programs across the EU network. In this role you set program strategy, drive end-to-end delivery of high-impact safety initiatives, and act as the senior program authority others rely on. You translate safety priorities into programs that scale across the network and deliver measurable results.

Your day mixes setting program strategy with driving the highest-impact initiatives end-to-end — defining scope, aligning stakeholders, and removing blockers. You use data to steer priorities, resolve the hardest program trade-offs, and present strategy and results to senior leadership. You set the approach other program managers follow and coach them on complex delivery.
