Sr. Business Analyst, Sustainability Reporting, WW Sustainability

About the role

Join us at the forefront of Amazon's sustainability initiatives to work on environmental and social advancements supporting Amazon's long-term worldwide sustainability strategy. The Worldwide Sustainability (WWS) organization capitalizes on Amazon’s scale and speed to build a more resilient and sustainable company, managing social and environmental impacts globally and driving solutions that enable customers, businesses, and the world to become more sustainable.

The Sustainability Reporting, Enablement and Governance (S-REG) team's mission is to build a lasting, scalable, and trusted sustainability reporting infrastructure to satisfy regulatory requirements and stakeholder expectations. We translate external requirements into internal needs and build tools and mechanisms enabling Amazon businesses to meet their sustainability reporting obligations and effectively manage risks and opportunities.

We are looking for a result-oriented, self-starter Business Analyst passionate about using data and automation to simplify complex sustainability reporting. You will bring a builder mindset, a clear point of view on how AI tools can support and scale analytical work, and the ability to thrive in ambiguity—structuring problems, reaching defensible conclusions, and documenting clearly.

Responsibilities

• Extract, transform, and present data from upstream systems for internal pre-reviews, statutory reporting, and external disclosures across sustainability domains (carbon, energy, water, waste, workforce).
• Develop and implement scalable testing mechanisms for internal pre-review examinations and assurance readiness—completeness, accuracy, and reconciliation checks that flag defects early and prioritize them by materiality.
• Evaluate and improve data collection and ingestion processes, proposing solutions that enhance scalability and eliminate redundancies—including detection and prevention rules to embed in upstream systems so defects are caught (or avoided) at the source.
• Draw correlations across domains (and against financials) in a way that is rigorous and makes business sense, ensuring reported trends are explainable and defensible under external assurance.
• Rapidly prototype new analytics and validation approaches (including with GenAI tooling) to prove value on real data, then hand well-specified requirements to internal tech partners to build and scale.
• Partner cross-functionally with data providers, measurement teams, report owners, and controllership—translating complex data-quality findings into plain language for non-technical stakeholders and senior leaders.
• Own the analytics that validate whether upstream controls are operating as intended (e.g., completeness of automated checks, detection of bypass or override), partnering with controllership teams to specify control requirements for new solutions before they move to production.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree.
• 5+ years of Excel or Tableau experience (data manipulation, macros, charts, and pivot tables).
• Fluency with AI/GenAI tools and a clear point of view on using them to automate low-value analytical work.
• Experience working with databases and SQL in a business environment.

Qualifications

• Experience working directly with business stakeholders to translate between data and business needs.
• Experience in data mining, ETL, and using databases in a business environment with large-scale, complex datasets.
• Experience developing tools, reports, process maps, scorecards, and data visualizations that improve business understanding and decision-making.
