• Build and refine forecasting models using POS trends, seasonality, promotions, and product history
• Drive forecast accuracy: measure performance, identify root causes, and implement improvements
• Lead forecasting discussions in Amazon Joint Business Planning meetings; present insights and action plans
• Partner with Sales and Amazon teams on in-season execution, promotions, and order decisions (chase/cancel)
• Manage replenishment and PO flow; recommend domestic and import orders
• Monitor and improve key metrics (in-stock, weeks of cover, fill rate)
• Act as liaison across customer service, supply planning, and allocation teams
• Deliver clear, actionable analytics to support business decisions

What We’re Looking For:

• 3–5 years of experience in forecasting, demand planning, or analytics
• Strong analytical skills with experience managing large SKU portfolios (500–1000+) and translating data into actionable insights
• Experience with statistical forecasting and retail/customer replenishment processes
• Familiarity with Amazon Vendor Central, Cognos, or similar tools (preferred)
• Excellent communication, organization, and cross‑functional collaboration skills in fast‑paced environments
