Full Job Description

Imagine designing the logistics network that will define Amazon Japan's next chapter of growth. We are looking for a Senior Program Manager to join the External Fulfillment (EF) Planning Team within Amazon Japan's Operations Division — a team that sits at the intersection of strategy, execution, and innovation. What is EF? External Fulfillment operates fulfillment centers run by 3PL partners and vendors — not Amazon's own FCs. These sites specialize in large, heavy, and temperature-sensitive products that demand unique logistics solutions. By scaling this network, the EF team unlocks product selection that customers never thought they could get delivered fast — and delivers it at speeds that redefine expectations. What you'll own: You will own the end-to-end lifecycle of EF sites — launching new logistics centers and managing them as a business after go-live. This isn't project management that ends at launch; you build it, then you run it. Why this role is special: Few positions offer this vantage point. You'll see the entire business landscape — from site development to operational readiness to ongoing performance — and translate that view into action. You'll architect logistics centers with capabilities that don't exist yet, enabling Amazon to enter new product categories and business models. If you want to leave a visible, lasting mark on how millions of customers receive their orders, this is the role. We welcome bold thinkers from diverse industries. Whether your background is in logistics, consulting, manufacturing, or something entirely different — if you thrive on complexity and want to build at scale, we want to hear from you. == アマゾンジャパン オペレーションズ部門のEF(External Fulfillment)プランニングチームにて、シニアプログラムマネージャーを募集します。 EFとは何か EFは、アマゾン自社のフルフィルメントセンター(FC)ではなく、3PLパートナーやメーカー・卸売企業が運営する物流拠点で注文処理・配送を行う事業です。大型品、重量品、温度管理品など、自社FCでは対応しにくい商材を中心に取り扱っています。このネットワークを拡大することで、お客様に幅広い品揃えと速い配送を提供し、アマゾンの事業成長を支えています。 このポジションが担う仕事 EF拠点のライフサイクル全体 — 新規物流センターの立ち上げと、稼働後の事業管理 — をオーナーとして担います。ローンチして
