Description

Books have been at the heart of Amazon since day one, and in Spain we're on a mission to inspire readers and make every book, in every format, easy to find and buy. As Retail Vendor Manager III, you'll own one of the largest vendor portfolios on the ES Books team and directly shape what millions of readers can discover. This is a high-ownership commercial role with real P&L; impact. You'll be the primary owner for a set of strategic publishers, distributors, and trade partners, leading annual negotiations, driving the joint business agenda, and growing selection, availability, and profitability across print and digital. You'll also become the team's go-to expert on Print on Demand (POD) and long-tail vendor programs, with the chance to scale initiatives such as POD for exports well beyond Spain.

Key job responsibilities

Own the end-to-end commercial relationship for a portfolio of strategic publishers, trade distributors, and trade publishers representing a substantial share of ES Books revenue across print and digital.



Propose annual and quarterly plans for your assigned portfolio, track implementation and vigente performance against targets, and drive corrective actions where needed. Lead annual vendor negotiations (terms, funding, co-op) and manage the Joint Business Plan (JBP) cadence with your largest strategic publisher partner under a joint print + digital model. Build the best possible selection for our customers by developing vendor relationships: new listings, product availability, and prioritisation across vendors. Oversee the listing of new products in the catalogue and coordinate vendors' correct use of Amazon's systems and tools, including onboarding tail vendors through the Advantage and Vendor Self-Publishing (VSP) programs. In coordination with the team's In-Stock Managers, contribute to purchasing plans, track purchase volumes in line with sales growth, and monitor inventory health across stock levels and turns.
