• Forecast demand across the full SKU base, including new items, seasonal ramps, and end-of-life
• Translate forecasts into actionable buy plans with clear coverage targets by SKU and category
• Decide how much inventory each category needs to stay in stock without carrying more than it can turn, and show the analysis behind those targets

• Place purchase orders against the plan, on the cadence the plan requires
• Smooth purchasing against weekly receiving capacity so buys land inside what our buildings can absorb
• Manage seasonal pull-ahead — Chinese New Year above all — as a months-long flow problem, not a single large buy

• Secure timely vendor acknowledgements and hold the line on committed dates
• Validate cargo ready dates and keep them honest
• Hand off cleanly to the transportation booking team so bookings, transit, and receipt line up with need dates
• Surface exceptions early, while there's still time to act on them
• Partner closely with merchandising, transportation, and distribution center operations

• Own vendor performance against acknowledged dates and cargo ready commitments
• When POs slip, get on the phone. Use the weight of our business to hold vendors to what they committed to
• Build the scorecards and the escalation path that make those conversations short

• Deep analytical capability — you work directly in the data, build the model yourself, and can defend the numbers rather than presenting someone else's output
• Fluency with SQL, BI tools, and advanced Excel, and the ability to pick up an ERP or planning system quickly
• Real vendor management experience — you've held suppliers or partners to commitments and know what actually moves them
• Demonstrated ability to build solutions with AI and automation, or a clear track record of teaching yourself new tools and putting them into production
• Comfort operating against hard physical or operational constraints, not just against a plan on paper

• In-stock rate improves while weeks of supply holds flat or comes down
• Receipts land inside weekly door and labor capacity, with peak volume feathered rather than spiked
• Vendor on-time performance to acknowledged dates improves, with a scorecard everyone recognizes
• Manual monitoring is gone wherever it can be automated, replaced by exceptions that surface on their own
