As Senior Manager, Merchandise Planning, you'll own the financial and strategic planning agenda across multiple divisions — setting the direction for sales, margin, and inventory productivity at a business-unit level. You'll be a key strategic partner to Merchandising, Allocation, and senior leadership, shaping enterprise-level financial strategy that informs long-range assortment investment, pricing architecture, and flow strategy. This role requires the judgment to operate at the enterprise level while staying close enough to the business to catch what matters — someone equally comfortable in a room with the C-suite and in the details of an OTB. You'll lead planning managers and their teams, build bench strength across the function, and drive the evolution of planning tools, processes, and financial discipline enterprise-wide.

Own the strategic direction for sales, margin, and inventory plans across multiple divisions, setting the framework planning managers and their teams execute against. Synthesize business performance across divisions to surface enterprise-level drivers, risks, and opportunities that shape investment priorities. Serve as a key strategic partner to Merchandising leadership, aligning cross-divisional financial goals with product strategy and long-range assortment planning. Present strategy and financial recommendations directly to senior leadership and executive stakeholders, framing assumptions, risk, and opportunity in business terms. Build and evolve multi-division strategies that drive sales, margin, and inventory turn targets, with an eye toward enterprise-wide consistency and scalability.

Direct the in-season analysis of sales, margin, and inventory trends across divisions, identifying variances and risks before they surface elsewhere. Set the standard for in-season forecasting, hindsight, and OTB management across teams, ensuring consistency, agility, and accuracy in financial decision‑making. Lead cross-functional collaboration at the leadership level to drive data‑informed adjustments to receipts, pricing, and promotions. Partner with Finance leadership on divisional and enterprise‑level reforecasting, tying performance to broader financial goals. Lead hindsight and investment review discussions, translating planning insight into strategic recommendations for senior leadership.

Required:

• Bachelor's degree
• 10+ years of experience in merchandise planning, financial analysis, or related fields
• Proven success leading planning strategy across multiple divisions or a large business unit
• Advanced analytical and financial modeling skills, with expert‑level Excel proficiency
• Executive‑level communication, presentation, and influencing skills
• Demonstrated success building and developing teams of planning managers, not just individual contributors

Preferred:

• Experience in multi‑category or multi‑channel retail planning at an enterprise scale
• Deep familiarity with enterprise‑level planning tools and financial reporting systems
• Track record leading large‑scale, cross‑functional business initiatives

• Summer Fridays - In addition to our hybrid work model, we also close our office at 1:00 PM every Friday during the Summer months.
• Community Impact - We support the communities where we live and work through our philanthropic efforts and the J.Crew Cares Program.

We make timeless clothes that last a lifetime…then pair them with of‑the‑moment styles season after season, decade after decade. We think that distinct heritage pairs perfectly with modern design and fabric technology. We believe in feel‑good color… Even if black or navy makes you feel best, we’re here for that. We’re the experts in signature categories: cashmere, coats, blazers, pants—and we also collaborate with the coolest brands out there because we know that creativity is contagious. We consider leopard a neutral, speak stripes fluently and live for a great gingham. We believe in looking like a million bucks, not spending it—which is why we go the extra mile to source the absolute best fabrics at the most accessible prices. We also know that we have a responsibility to the planet and to humanity to choose eco‑friendly fabrics and to support our factory workers, without compromise.
