Senior AWS Managed Services BD Manager

Job ID: 2829581 | Amazon Web Services Australia Pty Ltd

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the pioneer and recognized leader in Cloud Computing. Our web services provide a platform for IT infrastructure in-the-cloud that is used by hundreds of thousands of developers and businesses around the world. These customers range from start-ups to leading web companies to Global 2000 companies in financial services, pharmaceuticals, and technology.

AWS customers look for ways to improve their deployment of AWS via excellent customer experience, and often times want to augment their cloud deployments with sophisticated new capabilities. While doing so they also want to reduce complexity and costs, and this is done by transforming their operational and financial business models. A new service, called AWS Managed Services (AMS), is focused on helping accelerate Global 2000 Enterprise adoption of cloud services by providing a service that automates and helps them operate their infrastructure services on AWS in a secure, compliant, and scalable posture.

AWS is seeking a GTM Specialist (GTMS) for AWS Managed Services (AMS) that will provide customers with a suite of capabilities needed to transition existing IT workloads to AWS. The GTMS will be responsible for identifying appropriate AMS solutions for AWS customers, by providing in-depth business and technology expertise. The GTMS will be responsible for managing the pipeline for new opportunities, helping more customers to leverage AMS capabilities, which thereby will enable AWS customers to transform their deployment of AWS. The GTMS will work closely with AWS field and partner teams to position the service for customers, and provide guidance on the value proposition and benefit those customers can achieve.

In addition, you will define a process that the organization will follow to manage customer/partner engagements that require AMS. You will synthesize information gathered from these engagements into succinct findings, derive strategic insights, and persuasively communicate findings and perspectives to product and support teams, including senior management. You will track and prioritize engagements that would benefit from AMS, and collaborate and coordinate cross-functional teams around these engagements where appropriate. You will work closely with Business Practices and Economics team to establish programmatic ways to drive more scale of adoption via constructs and a nomenclature (e.g. ITIL) that make sense for Enterprise customers and the business.
