Responsibilities:

• Replenishment & PO Execution
  • Review daily replenishment needs using WOS targets, run-rate, lead time, current inventory, open POs, backorders, and demand trends.
  • Release purchase orders based on planning logic, business priorities, and exception review.
  • Validate system recommendations before execution, especially for SKUs with high velocity, high value, long lead-time, demand spikes, and overstock risk.
  • Monitor back-orders, stock-out risk, past-due open POs, and vendor constraints.
  • Escalate issues that could impact in-stock position, service levels, inventory exposure, or merchant goals.
• Item Master & Planning Data Accuracy
  • Work with Merchants and Item Master to keep planning-related item fields accurate and updated in a timely manner.
  • Identify missing, outdated, or incorrect item attributes that impact replenishment, SKU classification, lead time, WOS, aged inventory, overstock, GMROI, dashboards, and planning feeds.
  • Follow up on item setup issues that create inaccurate recommendations, reporting gaps, or poor inventory decisions.
  • Help strengthen data governance by identifying recurring data-quality issues and recommending process improvements.
• Exception Management & Root-Cause Analysis
  • Own exception review for aged inventory, overstock, past-due open POs, backorders, signal overrides, unusual demand patterns, and planning data gaps.
  • Perform root-cause analysis to determine whether issues are driven by demand shifts, incorrect item setup, vendor delays, lead time changes, PO timing, merchant ownership, system logic, or execution gaps.
  • Identify situations where the data may not tell the full story, including one-time sales spikes, promo lifts, new item behavior, vendor transitions, special/opportunity buys, or abnormal demand.
• Merchant & Cross-Functional Support
  • Partner with Merchants to validate item-level assumptions, demand changes, product lifecycle status, vendor realities, and purchasing needs.
  • Support merchant requests with data-backed inventory recommendations.
  • Coordinate with Item Master, Vendors, Warehouse Operations, and Finance to resolve inventory issues.
  • Own inventory-related JIRA tickets from intake through resolution, ensuring clear follow-up, ownership, and closure.
• Reporting, KPI Support & Process Improvement
  • Review and support KPIs related to WOS, run-rate, inventory turns, GMROI, aged inventory, overstock, in-stock risk, backorders, and open PO performance.
  • Help identify gaps between dashboard outputs, system recommendations, and actual business behavior.
  • Build or support exception reporting that improves visibility and helps the team act sooner.
  • Recommend improvements to replenishment logic, item setup workflows, reporting accuracy, and cross-functional follow-up.

What Will Help You Thrive:

• Experience in inventory planning, replenishment, purchasing, demand planning, retail operations, or supply chain.
• Strong understanding of WOS, run-rate, lead time, inventory turns, GMROI, aged inventory, overstock, backorders, and open PO management.
• Strong Excel skills and comfort working with large SKU-level datasets.
• Ability to analyze inventory issues, identify root causes, and recommend practical actions.
• Strong attention to detail, especially around item-level data and planning inputs.
• Ability to work cross-functionally with Merchants, BI/Looker, Item Master, Vendors, Warehouse Operations, and Finance.
• Experience with JIRA, BI tools, ERP systems, or replenishment systems is preferred.
• E-commerce, consumer electronics, or marketplace inventory experience is a plus.

• More accurate and timely PO execution.
• Better adherence to WOS and inventory targets.
