You will help design, improve, and run systems that connect people, products, and places at scale. You will take ownership early, work closely with teams to solve real-world challenges, and see the direct results of your decisions as they reach customers every day. This is a ten-week internship (40 hours per week) during the summer of 2027, located within one of Amazon’s fulfillment centers, sort centers, delivery stations, or other operations buildings. This is not a corporate, remote, or office-based position. ## About the Internship As an Area Manager Intern, you will learn how to coach, motivate, and mentor a team of Amazon associates in a warehouse environment. Amazon provides extensive training and development to become an exceptional people leader. Your main focus will be learning to manage a team and developing a summer project in partnership with your site leadership. ### Term 10 weeks ### Benefits - Access to Amazon's Medical Advice Line - Employee Assistance Program (EAP) - Financial benefits Visit www.aboutamazon.com/workplace/facilities to find more information on each of our building types. ## Key Job Responsibilities - Learn to coach, manage, and develop a team of 50–100 Amazon Associates. - Drive standard work and continuous improvement through an intern project. - Work independently in an autonomous environment. - Stand and walk during shifts lasting up to 12 hours. - Regularly work shift patterns that include nights, weekends, and/or holidays based on business needs (most sites follow a fixed 4-day work week with 3 days off, though shifts vary by site). - Oversee truck deliveries, handle and sort packages using pallet jacks, operate PIT equipment (at applicable facilities), and step in as needed. - Work in an environment where the noise level varies. - Lift up to 49 pounds and frequently push, pull, squat, bend, and reach. - Climb and descend stairs (when applicable). ## A Day in the Life As an Area Manager Intern, no two days look exactly the same, but every shift gives you the chance to learn how to lead a team, solve real problems, and directly impact how millions of customers receive their orders. ### Start of Shift: Set the Tone - Shadow a current Area Manager and complete your shift start: - Get a handoff from the outgoing manager and review what’s carrying over so nothing falls through the cracks. - Lead a team huddle to kick off the shift (align on goals, safety priorities, and key focus areas). - Confirm your team is in place, positioned for success, and ready before operations begin. ### Middle of Shift: Lead from the Floor - Walk the floor regularly to stay connected to your team, spot issues early, and keep things running smoothly. - Drive results across safety, quality, and productivity—balancing all three in real time. - Adjust staffing and resources as volume and priorities shift throughout the day. - Coach and develop team members, respond to challenges as they come up, and partner with support teams to remove roadblocks. - Keep peers and leadership informed on how the shift is tracking and flag risks before they become problems. - Develop your internship project. ### End of Shift: Close Strong - Do a final walkthrough to make sure your area is clean, organized, and set up for the next team’s success. - Review shift performance data and capture what went well and what to improve. - Hand off to the incoming manager with a clear picture of priorities, open items, and next steps. - Wrap up remaining administrative tasks so you leave the shift with a clean slate. Every shift, you will see the direct results of your leadership—from the energy of your team to the packages that reach customers’ doorsteps. ## Basic Qualifications - Currently enrolled in a bachelor’s degree program with all requirements anticipated to be completed between December 2027 and August 2028. ## Preferred Qualifications - Strong communication skills, both verbal and written. - Excellent customer service and interpersonal skills. - Currently enrolled in a Bachelor's program for Supply Chain, Business/Management, Engineering, or another related field. ## Additional Information - Amazon is an equal opportunity employer. - Please note: sponsorship is not available now or in the future for these positions.
