Rebekka Keough is a Product Leader at Amazon, where over the past 11 years she has led business units and technical roadmaps in Europe and North America. She first joined Amazon in Spain in 2013 when it was a newly launched Amazon geography, working to establish and grow the retail business. More recently, since 2020 Rebekka has been developing strategic People Experience and Technology HR capabilities and initiatives for Amazon globally.
Prior to joining Amazon, she was a management consultant at McKinsey & Company in both Canada and Spain, and also worked on FinTech innovation at Bankinter, a Spanish bank. Rebekka earned her HBA at the Ivey Business School at Western University in Canada, and her MBA from IESE Business School in Spain.
Rebekka is an alumna of SMUS, where she attended as a boarding student from 1998 through graduation in 2003. Her family now lives in Victoria, with two children (Class of ’33 and ’35), having attended SMUS since Kindergarten. Outside of work, Rebekka spends her free time navigating children's activities, or out on the incredible west coast, hiking and exploring local parks.
A common thread through all of Rebekka’s experiences has been a recognition and appreciation that people are at the heart of everything we do, and what she most enjoys and values.
