Human ResourcesFull-time

Amazon University Talent Acquisition (AUTA) is on a mission to identify and attract the world's best MBA talent — future leaders who will drive innovation across Amazon's businesses. We don't just fill roles; we shape the leadership pipeline that fuels Amazon's next chapter.

About the role

We're looking for an experienced Recruiting Manager to own MBA recruiting operations end-to-end. In this role, you will lead a team of MBA recruiters across full-lifecycle recruiting, partner directly with business leaders, build and scale programs, and drive operational excellence for one of Amazon's most visible and competitive talent pipelines.

Why You'll Love This Role

  • High visibility, high impact — MBA hires step into leadership roles across Amazon; your work directly shapes the company's future
  • Autonomy with support — you'll own the function with the backing of a seasoned AUTA leadership team invested in your growth
  • Innovation space — AUTA is evolving fast; you'll have room to challenge the status quo, experiment, and build what's next in university recruiting
  • Career trajectory — Amazon's scale means your next opportunity is always within reach

This is a role for a builder — someone who thrives in ambiguity, obsesses over candidate and customer experience, and wants to run a program that matters.

Responsibilities

  • Own end-to-end MBA recruiting strategy and execution — lead full-lifecycle recruiting across target MBA programs, from workforce planning and pipeline development through offer close and onboarding handoff
  • Manage campus and candidate relationships — serve as Amazon's primary recruiting presence at assigned MBA programs; cultivate long-term partnerships with career services, student clubs, and faculty
  • Partner with business stakeholders — consult with hiring managers, business unit leaders, and HRBPs to understand talent needs, calibrate role requirements, and deliver candidates who raise the bar
  • Drive operational mechanisms — own recruiting metrics (pipeline health, conversion rates, time-to-fill, candidate experience scores); run WBRs and deliver data-driven insights to leadership
  • Develop and execute events strategy — plan and lead on-campus engagements, info sessions, coffee chats, and closed-list events that strengthen Amazon's employer brand with MBA talent
  • Manage and improve recruiting processes — identify bottlenecks, design scalable workflows, and implement tools/mechanisms that increase efficiency and candidate quality
  • Ensure bar-raising hiring standards — uphold Amazon's interview philosophy; coach hiring teams on behavioral interviewing, calibrate loops, and close high-priority candidates
  • Deliver executive-level reporting — synthesize recruiting performance, market trends, and competitive intelligence into narratives for senior leadership

Requirements

Basic Qualifications

  • 6+ years of recruiting or HR experience
  • Experience building, coaching and managing a recruiting team
  • Experience managing large dispersed recruiting/sourcing teams
  • Experience working with recruiting tools and systems, including resume databases, internet sourcing tools, and spreadsheets
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience creating, measuring and scaling workflow among candidates, hiring managers and the recruiting team
  • Experience managing senior staff or staffing managers
  • Experience with workforce planning
  • Experience partnering with hiring teams to build effective sourcing, assessment, and closing approaches with an ability to manage customer/partner expectations

Pay

USA, WA, Seattle - $151,600.00 - $205,100.00 USD annually. Your Amazon package will include sign-on payments and restricted stock units (RSUs). Final compensation will be determined based on factors including experience, qualifications, and location.
