Lead communications on Amazon’s annual regulatory filings – the proxy, the shareholder letter, etc. You’ll work closely with legal and Investor Relations, owning the comms plan, advising on content, writing content, and managing media inquiries and coverage. Help plan and run the annual shareholder meeting. You’ll manage logistics, own media attendance, team up with Executive Communications to prep our leaders, and field media inquiries and coverage. Manage external speaking engagements for the Legal team. Partner with Financial Communications on financial filings, such as quarterly and annual earnings, especially as they relate to legal filings.
