You will own financial controls, reporting, and planning for Amazon's retail business across the MENA region. Working closely with business and finance partners, you will build the mechanisms that track growth and profitability, translate complex data into clear recommendations for senior leadership, and lead the analytical projects that shape how the business makes decisions.
This role sits at the intersection of controllership and strategic finance — you will design and automate management reporting, run planning cycles that align short and long-term forecasts with global stakeholders, and identify opportunities where data-backed insights drive measurable business value.
Key job responsibilities
Build review routines with the local business, including roll-out and training on related tools
Own and develop robust mechanisms to inspect growth and profitability of our business, working closely with related business teams
Establish controllership and approval mechanisms to manage day-to-day profitability
Invent, simplify, and automate management reporting, working closely with owners in business and Business Intelligence teams across the Amazon world
Provide strategic guidance, tactical direction, and decision support to business and finance partners
Lead key analytical projects and contribute to reviews that influence senior leadership decision making
Develop financial plans for both short and long- term planning exercises, aligning inputs with senior stakeholders worldwide
A day in the life
You might start the morning reviewing profitability data for a MENA country launch, then spend the afternoon presenting findings to a senior business leader and aligning on the implications for next quarter's plan. Between those moments, you are deep in the numbers — building or refining reporting mechanisms, troubleshooting data anomalies, and advising colleagues on how to interpret results in ambiguous situations. No two days look the same, but the thread running through all of them is the same: turning complex financial data into clear, actionable guidance for the business.
