Want to build something that actually moves the needle — at Amazon scale? The Last Mile DSP Payments team is looking for a Sr Program lead who doesn't just want a seat at the table, but wants to roll up their sleeves and rebuild the table itself.
We move more than €1B a year across 9 countries, 2,000+ legal entities, and 37,000+ service rate combinations — today, a lot of that runs on semi-automated workflows, Excel files, and cross-functional muscle memory. That's exactly the opportunity: if you're the kind of person who sees a messy, high-stakes process and immediately starts sketching the fix, this is your playground. You'll be hands-on from day one, with real ownership over how hundreds of Delivery Service Partners get paid across Europe.
This isn't a role for someone who wants a fully paved roadmap. It's for someone who wants to build the road.
Key job responsibilities What You'll Do Own and drive payment process improvement initiatives across EU manual and semi-automated workstreams — fleet, fuel, incentives, and beyond Strengthen and build new financial controls and audit trails — find the gaps before they become problems Build Excel-based tools, models, and dashboards (pivot tables, Power Query, macros, VBA) that replace manual grind with scalable systems Chase down payment discrepancies across EU countries — trace the data, find the root cause, fix it, and make sure it doesn't come back Turn messy operational reality into clean, structured requirements that fuel automation with Last Mile Payments Tech Help shape and execute the DSP payment automation roadmap, working shoulder-to-shoulder with Finance, Tax, Fleet, Pricing, and Tech
A day in the life
- You're an Excel power user — pivot tables, Power Query, and macro/VBA automation are second nature (we'll put this to the test)
- You bring order to chaos — structured thinking that turns ambiguity into a clear plan, fast
- You communicate with energy and clarity — across functions, across geographies, up to leadership and down to the front line
- You learn fast and don't wait to be told twice — complex payment logic, regulatory nuance, and cross-functional dependencies are puzzles you enjoy solving
- You're up for travel — getting in the room with EU regional ops teams, on-site, is part of how you get things done
- You thrive under pressure — peak periods with serious financial stakes don't rattle you, they energize you
Bonus points for: AI skills, SQL, BI tools (QuickSight, Tableau), experience with offshore teams, or a second European language
