At Amazon, we're working to be the most customer-centric company on earth. To get there, we need exceptionally talented, bright, and driven people. If you'd like to help us reinvent how a global organization buys the telecom products and services that power its operations, this is your chance to make history.
We are seeking a Telecom Category Manager to strategically source telecom products and services across the US and Latin America on behalf of the Global Procurement Organization (GPO). This role sets category strategy, leads cross-functional sourcing teams, negotiates with the region's most important telecom suppliers, and partners with our most senior stakeholders to advance the full set of GPO strategic imperatives: delivering savings, mitigating risk, and improving productivity, while also expanding managed spend coverage, creating value across the supply chain, driving commercial excellence and compliance, unlocking supplier innovation, and pursuing optimization and standardization at scale. This leader will also be expected to modernize the telecom procurement process itself, using AI and automation to make sourcing faster, smarter, and more scalable.
Key job responsibilities include:
A day in the life of a Telecom Category Manager in GPO involves telecom sourcing across the US and Latin America, blending category strategy, supplier negotiation, and process reinvention into each day. The role involves preparing for and leading complex negotiations with carriers and connectivity providers, running cross-functional sourcing teams with finance, legal, and procurement operations, and partnering with senior stakeholders to steer buying decisions toward optimal total cost of ownership rather than duplicate or under-optimized spend.
The GPO Tech Category Team is Amazon's strategic technology procurement organization within the Global Procurement Organization, responsible for sourcing the technology goods and services that power Worldwide Operations. Applying rigorous category management, the team takes end-to-end ownership of its spend domains, from demand planning and sourcing strategy through negotiation, award, contract management, and supplier relationship management.
