Amazon is hiring: Finance Risk Manager – Finance Operations Accounting & Analysis (FOAA)

Amazon is looking for a Finance Risk Manager to join the Finance Operations Accounting & Analysis (FOAA) team. In this role, you will serve as the team’s site leader and play a critical role in driving global controllership across FOAA.

You will be responsible for identifying financial and operational risks, performing inspections, and using your subject matter expertise to assess internal controls that impact accounting and financial reporting. This role requires strong collaboration with process owners to develop and implement actions that mitigate or remediate risk.

You will work cross-functionally with Corporate Accounting, technology teams, project managers, and FOAA accountants to ensure automated solutions meet Amazon’s high standards of controllership. Additionally, you will contribute to and/or lead FOAA’s Monthly and Quarterly Business Reviews (MBR/QBR).

The role also involves leading ad hoc projects focused on improving controllership—such as enhancing documentation quality, supporting environmental sustainability reporting, and reviewing policies for consistency and completeness. You will mentor and guide junior team members and contribute to the development of the annual project roadmap.

You will also partner with Amazon’s Global Financial Risk and Controls (GFRC) team to ensure successful completion of SOX compliance requirements.

Key Qualifications:
