Stefania Ghisleni
Senior Program Manager
Bio
I’m a Senior Program Manager at Amazon UK with over 12 years of experience across consulting and large-scale corporate environments. I’ve worked in account management, people leadership, and program roles spanning retail, marketplace, and logistics. My strength lies in bringing structure to ambiguous situations and helping teams make clear, high-impact decisions. Throughout my career, I’ve coached and mentored professionals at different stages — from junior employees to students and early-stage founders. I’m particularly passionate about helping startup founders and teams apply practical operating principles (customer obsession, working backwards, experimentation) in resource-constrained environments. If you’re navigating uncertainty, refining your strategy, or trying to move from idea to execution, I can help you bring clarity, focus, and momentum.
Expertise
Building a team
I’ve conducted 100+ interviews at Amazon and managed teams across different career stages — from apprentices and graduates to experienced hires. I help founders define hiring standards, assess talent rigorously, and build teams that scale with clarity and accountability.
Career guidance
Clarity on your next move. From international relocation to role pivots across functions, I’ve navigated several career shifts myself. I help professionals assess options, identify strengths, and make confident career decisions — especially within corporate or startup environments.
Customer success
Customer-obsessed and data-driven. I help teams translate customer feedback into structured processes and measurable improvements that drive retention and growth.
Leadership
Having managed teams across multiple experience levels, I focus on developing leaders who coach effectively, give structured feedback, and create ownership within their teams.
Product management
Customer-first product thinking. I help teams clarify problems, prioritise effectively, and make high-impact decisions without overcomplicating the process.
