    ABOUT THE ROLE

    Amazon MGM Studios is seeking a seasoned, highly organized, and proactive Executive Assistant to support and serve as a business partner to the VP of Series Marketing in Culver City, California. This is not a purely administrative role-you will be the operational backbone of a fast-paced, creative team, anticipating your leader"s needs before they arise and enabling the VP to focus on strategic priorities. You will expertly manage a complex, global calendar, coordinate travel, exercise excellent judgment in triaging competing priorities, and drive operational efficiency across the team.

They are skilled at anticipating problems, thinking several steps ahead, and resolving issues before they reach their leader.

A detail-oriented planner, they communicate and respond effectively and efficiently while maintaining flexibility, discretion, and grace under pressure. They handle confidential and sensitive information with the utmost integrity.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles
    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
