Sr. Programme Manager (Fixed-Term Contract), EU Road Safety VAS , Fleet Safety & Technology
Munich, Bavaria, DEU
full-timeProject/Program/Product Management--Non-TechJob Description
Global Fleet & Products (GF&P) — Fleet Safety & Technology — Safety Product Team sits at the intersection of technology, compliance, and partner engagement, designing and scaling technology safety programmes across international market. The Programme aims to build the world's safest fleet by developing road safety solutions that meet regional regulatory and financial requirements whilst maintaining consistent safety standards and alignment with safety accountability systems.
This is a high-visibility programme management role responsible for launching and scaling the EU Value-Added Services (VAS) programme — Amazon's largest safety technology deployment in Europe. The VAS programme represents a strategic pivot to a voluntary, partner-led model for road safety camera technology adoption across Last Mile (LM) and Middle Mile (MM) operations.
This programme is a VP-level goal and challenges every status quo approach to safety programme delivery. The successful candidate will drive adoption of dual-vendor safety technology through compelling incentive structures, cross-functional coordination, and rigorous programme governance — ultimately reducing severe crash rates across Partner fleets.
Please note that this is a 12 months fixed-term contract.
Key job responsibilities
First, programme manage the EU VAS launch across LM and MM in three countries — coordinating, partner communications, incentive deployment, and adoption tracking against defined targets.
Second, establish mechanisms to assess the effectiveness of design processes and conduct process improvement where required — applying Six Sigma or equivalent methodologies to identify bottlenecks, reduce cycle times, and improve partner experience throughout the adoption journey.
Third, build and own tracking and reporting mechanisms to monitor programme health and status against targets — both internally (MBR/QBR cadence feeding into the Global Safety QBR) and externally with vendors.
Fourth, lead course correction strategies when adoption targets are not met — diagnosing root causes (partner awareness, vendor sales effectiveness, incentive clarity) and implementing rapid interventions to recover trajectory.
Fifth, drive cross-functional stakeholder engagement across intern teams — whilst managing external vendor relationships.
A day in the life
A typical week blends strategic and tactical work — internal alignment meetings with Legal, DSP, and Finance stakeholders; direct customer (DSP) interaction to understand adoption barriers; vendor coordination calls; and data analysis to assess programme health. Monthly, the role leads internal MBRs and feeds updates into the Global Safety QBR.
