• Partner with Product Management, Sales, Demand Planning, and Purchasing to improve demand forecasts and replenishment strategies.
• Monitor forecast accuracy and bias; recommend improvements to planning assumptions and parameters.
• Coordinate returns with suppliers for slow moving SKUs to reduce excess inventory levels and improve turns.
• Support new product introductions and product lifecycle planning to minimize inventory risk.
Working Capital & Financial Impact

• Support Finance with inventory valuation analysis, reserves, and period-end reporting.

• Track and report progress against inventory, service, and working capital targets.
Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Influence decision-making without direct authority.
• Work with warehouse operations teams to root cause inventory discrepancies across the distribution network.
• Coordinate promotional initiatives with Marketing to expedite the depletion of discontinued and slow-moving SKUs.
• Works cross functionally with Product Managers and Vendor Compliance to strategize and resolve supplier issues relating to on-time shipping, responsiveness, and quality.
Continuous Improvement
• Identify gaps and inefficiencies in inventory planning processes, data quality, and execution.
• Support ERP, planning tool, or BI enhancements related to inventory management
• Document best practices and standard operating procedures.
• Develop process improvement plans across the operations teams to enhance the inventory management, planning tools, and reporting capabilities.

• Excellent verbal and written communications skills are also required
Technical Skills
• Advanced Excel skills (pivot tables, lookups, scenario modeling; VBA a plus).
• Experience with ERP systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, Dynamics, Infor).
• Strong reporting and visualization skills (Power BI, Tableau, or similar preferred).
• Solid understanding of inventory planning concepts (service levels, safety stock, EOQ, lead times, forecast accuracy).
Critical Success Traits
• Business mindset: understands inventory as cash, not just stock
• Intellectual curiosity and strong root-cause thinking
• Ability to influence without authority
• Bias for action—moves from insight to recommendation
• Strong attention to detail
