Global Inventory Manager Jobs in Oregon (NOW HIRING)

How you'll have an impact at Paula's Choice:  

The Senior Manager, Global Inventory Deployment is critical to the success of Paula's Choice's supply chain organization. The role is responsible for leading a consolidated global team of inventory analysts and managers focused on optimizing finished goods placement across all markets - NA, ANZ, APAC, EU, and UK - while maintaining high service levels across every channel the business operates in and co-owning a significant supply chain transformation agenda.

As a Senior Manager, Global Inventory Deployment, a typical day might include a mix of the following:

• Consolidate and lead the full global Inventory Deployment function - NAM and International - as the single accountable owner of finished goods placement across all markets and channels
• Set the global inventory deployment strategy: define global allocation policy, constrained-period decision frameworks, and Supply Signal standards that apply consistently across all markets NAM, ANZ, APAC, EU, and UK
• Make cross-market allocation decisions that optimize global inventory health simultaneously - not within a single region - owning the commercial consequences of constrained-SKU, NPD launch, and OOS scenarios across 100% of company revenue
• Lead, develop, and hold accountable a consolidated global team: three NAM analysts (direct) and the Manager, International Deployment and their APAC analyst (indirect), building toward a high-performing function with consistent standards and reduced reliance on manager-level intervention for routine decisions
• Own the integration of Inventory Deployment into the global S&OP process - representing a single, authoritative global inventory voice in consensus and executive tiers, and ensuring deployment constraints are visible and actioned at the planning level
• Drive the transformation of the Inventory Deployment function from reactive and manual to structured, system-supported, and scalable - leading NetSuite deployment automation, Supply Signal rebuild, global OOS visibility, and SLOB dashboard delivery as primary SME and accountable owner
• Define and govern global North Star KPIs for inventory deployment - fill rate, in-stock rate, MOS, projected OOS impact, and SLOB exposure by market - and build the reporting infrastructure to make performance visible and actionable across all regions
• Own daily global inventory execution with commercial rigour: transfer orders, reallocations, misroutes, and stuck orders across all DCs and markets, ensuring inventory is never double-committed and service levels are maintained across every channel
• Lead the global Supply Signal manual approvals cycle - managing all five approval types across all regions - and partner with Demand Planning to ensure requests reflect accurate channel needs and upstream supply risk is escalated proactively
• Manage global expiry date and SLOB strategy with a working capital lens, minimizing write-off risk and ensuring constrained inventory is allocated to its highest-value use across all markets
• Serve as the senior cross-functional partner for all channel leads globally, representing Inventory Deployment with authority in all relevant forums and ensuring allocation decisions reflect commercial priorities, promotional calendars, and channel mix strategies
• Drive the roadmap to reduce manual platform dependency across the function - consolidating execution across NetSuite, WMS, OPC, Smartsheet, and Power BI into scalable, documented, system-supported processes
