• Apply strong analytical and operational skills in demand planning, forecasting, and inventory control (including WOS, safety stock, and seasonality management).
• Demonstrate a proven track record of improving OTIF/fill rates and reducing chargebacks.

3–5+ years of experience in CPG retail operations with direct exposure to Walmart and Target accounts (experience with Costco, Walgreens, Kroger, B&N, or other majors is a plus).
