• Align Planning with Strategy - Partner closely with Category teams to ensure demand forecasts align with merchandise plans, while conducting post-promotional reviews to continuously improve forecasting accuracy.
• Drive Inventory Performance - Manage replenishment planning and inventory levels, place timely purchase orders, and proactively address excess, aged, or slow-moving stock to support profitability and service levels.
• Collaborate Across the Business - Build strong relationships with internal stakeholders and external suppliers, working together to improve forecasting accuracy, streamline processes, and deliver exceptional customer outcomes.
