Location:

Norwalk, CT We have been retained by a rapidly growing, data-driven e-commerce company - a top Amazon and Walmart.com seller that is expanding into retail, creating a more traditional consumer products company. This evolution is driving increased complexity across inventory, supply flow, and planning — creating a need for stronger analytical capabilities within the supply planning team.

Position Description:

The Supply Planning Analyst will play a critical role in inventory optimization and supply planning analytics across a complex, multi-channel, high-SKU environment. Analyze and optimize inventory across channels to reduce excess stock and improve working capital. Develop data-driven models to determine optimal inventory levels, safety stock, and days of supply across a complex SKU portfolio. Support replenishment planning by aligning supply with demand while managing MOQ constraints, lead times, and supplier variability. Evaluate end-to-end supply flow to improve inventory positioning and availability. Segment the portfolio and define differentiated inventory and replenishment strategies. Perform root-cause analysis on stockouts, excess inventory, and imbalances, driving continuous improvement. Build and maintain analytical tools (primarily in Excel) to enhance supply planning and inventory decision-making. Partner cross-functionally to implement data-driven supply strategies that balance cost and service.

Background Required:

Bachelor's degree in a quantitative field with 5+ years of experience in finished goods planning within a Consumer Products / CPG environment. Advanced Excel expertise required (Power Query, Power Pivot, etc.). Proven ability to translate data into actionable insights that influence business decisions in fast-paced, high-variability environments.

Miscellaneous:

Compensation:

$100,000 - $115,000 + bonus. Full benefit package including medical, dental, 401(k), in-office gym, parental leave and much more.
