You’ll be based at one of our sites. This means that you can closely track what’s happening and people can easily ask you any questions throughout their shifts. This role is all about spotting potential issues before they happen. You’ll spend a lot of time checking the site and getting to know the way that people use equipment. By understanding how every task and machine works, you’ll be able to think about the best way to keep processes safe.
You’ll also be one of the people to put safety changes into action, which means you’ll get to work closely with lots of people. Alongside your daily and weekly tasks, you’ll offer support to our Operations team on ad-hoc safety-related work.

About the team
Customer Fulfilment, or CF, is where it all started for Amazon. CF has scaled up from a humble team of booksellers to a sophisticated global team which handles more than 1.5 million orders every day. The team is the foundation of our business and its efforts have helped us diversify across new regions and services. With the help of emerging technology, we’re always looking for ways to offer a bigger, better product range – delivered quickly and affordably.

The CF team are the first people in the chain that helps customers get products at the speed we’re known for. We’re based in Fulfilment Centres, which are at the heart of Amazon’s fast-paced Operations network. Our centres are sometimes referred to as the ‘First Mile’ because it’s where most Amazon packages start their journey. We help to manage dynamic inventory and facilitate speedy deliveries round the clock.
