As a CMDA apprentice, you'll work towards becoming a professional manager capable of managing complexity and delivering impact at both strategic and operational levels. This 4-year program combines on-the-job training with academic study, leading to a BA (Hons), BSc (Hons), or BBA (Hons) in Management and Business, along with the opportunity to achieve Chartered Manager status. Apply today to be part of the story! Key job responsibilities We are looking for exceptionally talented, bright, and driven people to join our Operations Teams to complete the Chartered Management Degree Apprenticeship (CMDA) at one of our warehouses in England. As a degree apprentice, you will join Amazon in a supervisory role, where you will oversee the management of one or more processes across our operation, leading a small team of up to 20 on your shift. In this role you will be driving the pulse of our operations on the ground and playing a key role in getting our customers' orders out to them in every step of our fast moving and dynamic process. This is a varied, challenging role and every day is different! As an apprentice you will dedicate 20% of your working time to your apprenticeship studies, attending seminars, writing assignments, and completing other 'off-the-job' learning activities. The remaining 80% of your time will be spent 'on-the-job' as a supervisor. Apprentices work closely with site management teams to ensure that the assigned department is performing in line with the plan and that customer expectations are met, if not exceeded. The Chartered Management Degree Apprenticeship is delivered by Manchester Metropolitan University over a three-year period. As well as attending lectures at the University campus three times per year, participants will develop their skills in the workplace, supported by an Amazon mentor and a University Skills Coach who will help support to effectively embed learning alongside managerial practice. The program will leave graduates with the experience and competences necessary to take successful long-term managerial responsibility for people, projects, operations, and services within the business. The early units of the course introduce strategic leadership, operations and technology, sales, marketing, and business finance. Apprentices will be encouraged to demonstrate how they can apply these skills in the workplace. Later units explore project management, strategy, digital technologies in business, and leadership techniques. Apprentices will reconcile their learning at the end of the final year with a substantial work-based project and through the creation of a business portfolio, demonstrating the way in which they have continually applied their knowledge directly to the context of Amazon operations. In order to maximise your on-the-job learning, you can expect to spend time in different areas of our fast-paced warehouse environment. Learners will follow a workplace placement plan, and could spend time in support functions such as Safety, Quality, and HR, to broaden business knowledge. You will work on different shift patterns throughout your apprenticeship, including some weekend and/or night shift work patterns.
