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 and Undergraduate Non-Technical recruiting operations end-to-end. In this role, you will:

Lead a team of senior recruiters across full-lifecycle 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.

Key job responsibilities

Own end-to-end recruiting strategy and execution — lead full-lifecycle recruiting across target MBA programs, from workforce planning and pipeline development through offer close and onboarding handoff

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
