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.
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 MBA recruiting — from strategy through offer close — partnering directly with business leaders across Amazon to deliver exceptional talent
Build and scale programs that elevate the candidate experience and strengthen Amazon's brand on top MBA campuses
Drive operational excellence — owning metrics, mechanisms, and continuous improvement for one of Amazon's most visible and competitive talent pipelines
Influence stakeholders at all levels — serving as a trusted advisor to hiring teams, program managers, and senior leadership on MBA hiring strategy and market intelligence
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.
