Amazon is seeking a Strategic Sourcing Manager to join the Global Corporate Procurement (GCP) Team. This is an exciting opportunity to be a part of a team that has a meaningful and measurable impact on Amazon’s success. At Amazon, our vision is to be Earth's most customer-centric company. Our passion for invention leads us to pioneer and globalize new businesses and customer offerings daily. As we rapidly become the world’s largest consumer of services in many categories, the Corporate Procurement team is fueling our explosive growth by identifying innovative sourcing strategies and negotiating sustainable, long-term partnerships. We are seeking a skilled Strategic Sourcing Manager with experience leading complex sourcing initiatives across Employee Services.
Key leadership traits required include the ability to influence and form partnerships with business leaders, and operational excellence in managing multiple complex and competing priorities simultaneously. Strategic Sourcing Managers are expert practitioners in the tools for creating competitive environments and have a bias for decision-making rooted in data and analytics. They routinely influence vendor relationships by advising Amazon leaders across multiple stakeholder groups on the direction of sourcing projects in support of business goals. If you are looking for a new challenge in a fast-paced, innovative company, come make history with Amazon’s Global Corporate Procurement department.
At Amazon, we believe that in-person collaboration is essential to our culture and innovation. While we allow flexibility for personal circumstances, we generally expect employees to work from our offices five days a week. This approach has consistently shown that spontaneous interactions, rapid problem-solving, and the energy of in-person teamwork led to better results for our customers. Our data shows that teams working together in person are more effective at making complex decisions, onboarding new team members, and fostering the kind of creative collaboration that has driven Amazon's success. The serendipitous hallway conversations and impromptu whiteboarding sessions that happen naturally in an office environment have proven invaluable to our invention process and maintaining our high bar for excellence.
Key job responsibilities
- Establishing strong relationships with internal business stakeholders; building a strong understanding of strategic business direction, requirements and priorities across assigned suppliers and/or spend categories
- Dive deep across multiple business units to leverage our supplier base with the goal of optimizing performance, quality, and cost
- Evaluate supplier core competencies and competitive positioning using industry cost models and benchmarking; leveraging key-insights to inform and support the strategic sourcing strategy development process
- Managing the fundamentals of sourcing and supplier engagement activities including RFx, spend pattern analysis, contract analysis, bid evaluation, negotiations, and supplier consolidation
- Identifying sourcing opportunities by leveraging spend analysis tools and engage with stakeholders to consolidate requirements over categories, suppliers and geographies
- Work with business and finance leaders to identify and drive savings and controllership improvements, optimizing the return on investment and total cost of ownership
- Providing guidance to internal stakeholders on procurement processes and best-practice tools, such as category management, supplier evaluation and supplier diversity
A day in the life
Your morning might start with a cross-functional alignment call for an upcoming RFP involving three business units, followed by analyzing bid responses and building a recommendation deck for senior leadership. After lunch, you're on a negotiation call with a strategic supplier's C-suite to finalize contract terms, then pivoting to a spend review with Finance to validate savings actuals against targets. You'll close the day by coaching a business partner through the supplier evaluation framework for an upcoming engagement. No two days look the same — you'll balance long-range strategic planning with hands-on execution, often managing five or more active sourcing engagements simultaneously across different stages of the lifecycle.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Visa Sponsorship as a Sourcing Manager
Align your degree to the role
Consular officers assess whether your Chilean degree directly supports sourcing work. A supply chain, industrial engineering, or business degree strengthens your case. If your credential is in a different field, document how your coursework covers procurement, vendor management, or operations.
Target employers with LCA filing history
Not every company knows the H-1B1 Chile visa exists. Use Migrate Mate to filter for employers who have already filed Labor Condition Applications for sourcing or supply chain roles, so you're talking to teams familiar with the process.
Confirm the specialty occupation classification upfront
Sourcing Manager sits under O*NET SOC code 11-3061, which requires a degree-level qualification in a specific field. Verify this classification before your interview so your employer's LCA filing accurately reflects the role's specialty occupation status.
Request the LCA before your consulate appointment
Your employer files the LCA with DOL and must have certification in hand before you apply at the consulate. Confirm the certified LCA is ready at least two weeks before your interview date to avoid rescheduling delays.
Check prevailing wage requirements for your location
DOL requires your offered wage to meet the prevailing wage for Sourcing Manager roles in your specific metro area. Use the OFLC Wage Search to verify your offer clears the threshold before your employer submits the LCA.
Prepare for nonimmigrant intent questions at the consulate
Unlike H-1B, the H-1B1 Chile visa doesn't allow dual intent. Consular officers may ask about your long-term plans. Have clear, honest answers ready that demonstrate your intent to return to Chile after your authorized stay.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Sourcing Manager role qualify as a specialty occupation for the H-1B1 Chile visa?
Yes, provided the position requires at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related field such as supply chain management, business administration, or industrial engineering. Roles where any bachelor's degree satisfies the requirement regardless of field are harder to classify as specialty occupation. Your employer must document this in the Labor Condition Application filed with DOL.
How does the H-1B1 Chile visa compare to the H-1B for Sourcing Manager roles?
The H-1B1 Chile visa has no lottery and no employer petition filed with USCIS. You apply directly at the U.S. consulate in Chile after your employer certifies the LCA with DOL. The trade-off is that H-1B1 doesn't allow dual intent, so it's better suited to professionals who plan to return to Chile rather than pursue permanent residency.
How can I find employers actively sponsoring H-1B1 Chile visa Sourcing Manager positions?
Migrate Mate shows which employers have filed Labor Condition Applications for sourcing and supply chain roles, so you can identify companies already familiar with the H-1B1 Chile visa process rather than educating employers from scratch. Targeting companies with LCA filing history significantly reduces friction during the offer stage.
What documents do I need for the H-1B1 Chile consulate appointment as a Sourcing Manager?
You'll need your certified LCA from DOL, a job offer letter specifying the specialty occupation and wage, your academic credentials confirming a qualifying degree, a valid Chilean passport, a completed DS-160, and proof of your MRV fee payment. The consulate doesn't require an I-129 petition, which is one reason H-1B1 visa processing is faster than H-1B.
Can my Sourcing Manager H-1B1 Chile visa be renewed, and how long is each period?
H-1B1 Chile visas are issued in one-year increments and can be renewed indefinitely at the consulate as long as you maintain a qualifying job offer and your employer recertifies the LCA with DOL each renewal cycle. There's no cap on the number of renewals, but you must reapply at the consulate rather than extending status inside the U.S. through USCIS.
