What does an allocation intern do?

An Allocation Intern supports the allocation team by assisting with inventory distribution and stock management across different stores or locations. They analyze sales data, monitor inventory levels, and help ensure that products are placed where they are most likely to sell. This role often involves working with spreadsheets, learning inventory systems, and collaborating with buyers and planners to optimize stock levels and minimize overstock or stockouts. Allocation Interns gain valuable experience in retail operations, data analysis, and supply chain processes.
