DESCRIPTION

Amazon Cross Channel Marketing (XCM) is seeking an organized and detail-oriented Digital Asset Manager to oversee content, infrastructure, and compliance measures for our digital asset management (DAM) system. This role encompasses managing all digital assets, including photography, graphics, videos, and audio used by XCM, Amazon Subsidiaries, and Global Agencies. As the Digital Asset Manager, you will develop and implement a program management strategy to source assets from various internal stakeholders and make them easily accessible to global partners. Your responsibilities will include developing and maintaining metadata and curation strategies to enhance efficiency for internal teams and external partners using our DAM. You'll collaborate with multiple XCM stakeholders to optimize user experience within the DAM, while establishing relationships and defining workflows to maximize asset availability and discoverability with minimal manual intervention.

In this role, you'll curate unique customer experiences while establishing scalable processes, and create consistent communication channels with partners to provide insights and alignment with brand strategies. You will also act as the main administrator and champion for the DAM tool, providing user support and continually improving the experience for internal and external customers. Supporting teams across multiple divisions, you'll play a pivotal role in defining strategies for scaling asset availability to all partners.

To be successful in this role, you must possess a unique blend of technical expertise, leadership skills, and strategic vision. You'll need to be a proactive problem-solver with the ability to navigate complex systems and workflows. Strong communication skills are essential, as you'll be collaborating with diverse teams and articulating technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders. A keen eye for detail and a passion for organization, coupled with the ability to see the big picture in terms of asset management strategy, are crucial. Adaptability is key, as you'll need to stay ahead of evolving technologies, trends, and industry best practices. Your ability to influence without authority will be vital in driving adoption of asset management best practices across the organization. Lastly, a customer-centric mindset and a deep understanding of how digital assets contribute to brand consistency and marketing effectiveness will be fundamental to your success in this role.
