A day in the life
You’ll be based on location at one of our sites, which could be one of our

About the team
Customer Fulfilment, or CF, is where it all started for Amazon. CF has scaled
up from a humble team of booksellers to a sophisticated global team which
handles more than 1.5 million orders every day. The team is the foundation of

services. With the help of emerging technology, we’re always looking for ways
to offer a bigger, better product range – delivered quickly and affordably.
The CF team are the first people in the chain that helps customers get
products at the speed we’re known for. We’re based in Fulfilment Centres,
which are at the heart of Amazon’s fast-paced Operations network. Our centres
are sometimes referred to as the ‘First Mile’ because it’s where most Amazon
packages start their journey. We help to manage dynamic inventory and

Lots of different people work in our Fulfilment Centres, so there are plenty
of opportunities for every skillset. Some of us work with physical products,
while others analyse data to help everyone across the business make smart
decisions.
