Amazon Multi-Channel Commerce and Fulfillment (MCCF) is seeking a strong leader to build and scale our channel partnerships with agencies, consultancies, and supply chain experts, leading a high-performing team of 7 Partner Managers.
Externalizing Amazon's supply chain services to reach merchants beyond our own channels is one of MCCF's biggest growth opportunities, and partners are central to unlocking it. This role owns the channel strategy for capturing that opportunity: driving upper-funnel demand for Amazon's externalized supply chain services through the partner ecosystem. Working through partners, the team generates awareness and demand among partners' merchant bases, feeds qualified leads and opportunities to our sales teams, and finds new ways to scale our shared book of business. Success is measured by partner onboarding and enablement, and by the leads and demand generated for Sales.
This is a high-visibility, strategic role in a high-growth business. The leader sets the vision for the channel, collaborates with senior leaders across Amazon, and engages directly at the C-suite level with our partners and with leading eCommerce brands to shape long-term, mutually beneficial growth. The ideal candidate is a data-driven operator who thinks big, builds trusted relationships with decision-makers and executives at prospective partners, and delivers ambitious growth targets while raising the bar on partner experience.
Key Job Responsibilities
- Own partner onboarding, enablement, and lead generation for the sales team.
- Attract, retain, and scale top talent; mentor and coach Partner Managers.
- Set short- and long-term goals and execution plans, and build the programs and tools that improve team performance.

- Build and own executive relationships with key partners to set direction and unlock scaled growth.
- Partner with Sales, Marketing, Product, Dev, Finance, and Legal to execute the channel strategy.
- Represent partner and industry needs to influence product innovation and keep Amazon's value proposition differentiated.
About the team
MCCF extends Amazon's world-class shopping and logistics capabilities to merchants' own sales channels beyond Amazon. MCCF lets merchants use Amazon's fulfillment network to pick, pack, ship, and deliver orders from off-Amazon sales channels. For over 20 years, Amazon has empowered businesses to grow, and MCCF is the next step in helping merchants of all sizes grow their business — on Amazon or beyond.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship as a Channel Partnerships Manager
Document your channel development metrics now
PERM requires your employer to define the role's minimum requirements before advertising. Pull together quantified examples of partner pipelines you've built, revenue attributed to channel programs, and any certifications in partner relationship management, these strengthen the job description's specialty occupation framing.
Target employers with existing PERM filing history
Companies that have filed PERM for partnerships or business development roles before already have HR processes and immigration counsel in place. Search OFLC disclosure data by SOC code 11-2022 (Sales Managers) or 11-1021 to find employers who've sponsored comparable roles.
Use Migrate Mate to filter sponsoring employers
Search Migrate Mate to identify Channel Partnerships Manager roles at companies with active green card sponsorship history, so you're applying where PERM is a realistic outcome rather than a cold ask to an employer with no process in place.
Clarify degree field alignment before PERM advertising
DOL requires the job description to state a degree in a specific field, not just 'a bachelor's degree.' For this role, business administration, marketing, or a related field are defensible, confirm with your employer's immigration counsel before the PERM recruitment window opens.
Negotiate sponsorship commitment into your offer letter
Ask for an explicit written commitment to initiate PERM within a defined period, often six to twelve months. USCIS and DOL timelines make retroactive promises difficult to enforce, and verbal assurances frequently fall apart when legal costs hit.
Understand EB-2 versus EB-3 routing for your background
EB-2 requires your role to genuinely require an advanced degree, a master's or a bachelor's plus five years of progressive experience. If your employer's job description only requires a bachelor's, EB-3 is the correct category, which affects both your priority date and backlog exposure by country.
Green Card Channel Partnerships Manager: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Channel Partnerships Manager role qualify for EB-2 or EB-3 sponsorship?
It depends on how the employer defines the minimum requirements. If the role genuinely requires a master's degree or a bachelor's plus five years of progressive experience in channel or partner management, EB-2 applies. If a bachelor's degree in business or marketing suffices, EB-3 is the correct category. The job description filed with DOL under PERM locks in that classification, so the wording matters before the recruitment window opens.
How does green card sponsorship differ from H-1B sponsorship for this role?
H-1B visa is a temporary status with a three-year initial period and lottery exposure for cap-subject employers. PERM-based green card sponsorship leads to permanent residency with no annual lottery. The EB-3 category has no numerical cap for most countries outside India and China, so wait times are far shorter than for EB-2 NIW or EB-1. The tradeoff is that PERM takes longer to initiate, often 12 to 24 months from filing to I-140 approval, and you must remain in a substantially similar role through the process.
What does the PERM recruitment process look like for a Channel Partnerships Manager?
Your employer must conduct DOL-prescribed recruitment steps, including job postings, newspaper advertisements, and internal notices, before certifying that no minimally qualified U.S. workers applied. For a Channel Partnerships Manager role, the job description must specify a defined degree field and any required experience. DOL reviews the application, and if certified, your employer files the I-140 petition with USCIS. The entire PERM stage currently averages well over a year for analyst review cases.
How do I find Channel Partnerships Manager jobs where employers will actually sponsor a green card?
Search Migrate Mate to filter for Channel Partnerships Manager roles at employers with documented green card sponsorship history. This saves significant time compared to applying broadly and discovering late in the process that a company has never filed PERM. Focusing on employers who've already sponsored comparable business development or partnerships roles means the infrastructure and willingness are already in place.
Can I use the O*NET occupation profile to support my green card application?
O*NET provides occupational data including typical education levels, required knowledge areas, and skill sets for roles like Channel Partnerships Manager. While O*NET isn't a USCIS submission document, its data helps employers and immigration counsel craft PERM job descriptions that accurately reflect the specialty nature of the role and justify the stated minimum requirements under DOL standards.
