Amazon Australia Announces Mass Onboarding Ahead of Prime Day

2 Min Read

Amazon Australia plans to onboard 850 seasonal workers across its Australia fulfilment centres and logistics sites around the country, ahead of Prime Day this July, one of the most anticipated shopping events of the year.

The seasonal positions will see new team members help pick, pack and ship orders for customers around the country, keeping deliveries moving during the sales season – including the annual Prime member-exclusive sale event. Opportunities are now available across sites in NSW, VIC, QLD, SA, and WA, and no previous experience is required.

“During Prime Day, our sites are buzzing with excitement. We provide all training on-site, so no experience is required, and over the years we’ve welcomed many people who have never set foot in a warehouse before,” said Michelle Theophilou, Senior HR Manager, Amazon Australia. “All we’re looking for is enthusiasm and a willingness to get involved. For many, what has started as a seasonal role has become the beginning of a long-term career at Amazon,” she added.

Prime Day is Amazon’s annual Prime membership-exclusive shopping event, offering discounts exclusively for Prime members on a huge range of products from everyday essentials to big-brand electronics, appliances, books, clothing, toys, homewares and more.

“Prime Day returns this July, and members will be able to access epic deals on a huge range of products during the sales event, on top of the benefits they already enjoy every day like fast, free delivery, Prime Video, Amazon Music and two years of the DoorDash DashPass,” said Arno Lenior, APAC Director of Prime, Amazon Australia. “At a time when Australians are looking to make every dollar count, Prime delivers more value than ever.”

Amazon also offers Amazon Flex delivery partner opportunities, allowing individuals to deliver packages to Amazon customers using their own vehicle, on their own schedule.
