Amazon EU Retail are re-launching our Returners Program. Amazon EU Retail aims to support those who have been out of the workplace for 18 months or more, to re-start their career and develop their skills and experience in a progressive environment.

What is Amazon Retail?

We like to think of ourselves as Amazon Classic. We are the people behind the product selection made available to customers through Amazon's eCommerce business (e.g. the German online store hosted on https://www.amazon.de/-/en/ ).

We manage both the relationships with our EU brands and also our customers. Our customers experience our work when they are able to find the product they are looking for sold by Amazon Retail at a great price on our Amazon EU online stores. We push the eCommerce industry forward by continuously innovating on behalf of our customers!

Amazon is guided by four principles: customer obsession rather than competitor focus, passion for invention, commitment to operational excellence, and long-term thinking. Amazon strives to be Earth’s most customer-centric company, Earth’s best employer, and Earth’s safest place to work.
