Security and Loss Prevention Specialist

Role overview

Amazon is seeking a practical, detail-focused Security and Loss Prevention (SLP) Specialist to help safeguard operational sites in Troisdorf, North Rhine-Westphalia. In this role, you will support security as a service across the end-to-end supply chain, helping protect people, reduce losses, and maintain continuity across operations.

Key responsibilities

• Help strengthen business resilience by supporting emergency and crisis planning for sites within your area of responsibility.
• Identify risks and weak points such as losses, associate experience concerns, and process gaps, then help define corrective measures while staying aligned with legal and ethical standards.
• Act as a contact point for local management and outside stakeholders, including law enforcement and industry groups, and help coordinate security-related risk management actions.
• Make sure assigned locations follow Amazon’s global security standards.

What the role involves day to day

You will work with a team of Security and Loss Prevention professionals serving multiple business units across a defined geographic area. Your routine will include physical security audits, policy-violation reviews, incident investigations, and loss-event investigations.

You will gather evidence by reviewing systems and tools, analyzing reports, and interviewing relevant people. The insights you produce will be used to identify process vulnerabilities and improve controls.

You will also help maintain the physical integrity of sites by checking the condition of security systems and working with subject matter experts and external vendors to keep them operational. A large part of the job involves daily collaboration with external security providers to ensure strong service quality and a smooth experience for internal customers.

In addition, you will serve as a liaison for internal and external teams such as legal, HR, security vendors, and local law enforcement, while acting as a subject matter resource for Security and Loss Prevention topics.

You will also deliver awareness and training initiatives related to loss prevention and work with stakeholders across all management levels on policies and procedures.
