The Role Own replenishment, order writing, inventory forecasting, and open-to-buy planning for Furniture and Monitors. Manage dropship vendors, monitor availability and out-of-stocks, resolve fulfillment risks, and deliver sales and inventory recaps. Partner with Merchandising, Supply Chain, and Finance on assortment changes, new product introductions, and category health. The role requires advanced Excel, retail math, planning-system proficiency, strong vendor communication, and effective use of AI tools. Summary Generated by Built In What the Role Is This role owns replenishment and order writing for Babylist's Furniture and Monitors categories — a mix of bulky, freight-heavy furniture and dropship-fulfilled monitor SKUs. You'll manage inventory flow across a heavily dropship vendor base, balancing in-stock performance against the longer lead times and fulfillment complexity these categories bring. You'll report into Division 3 Planning and work closely with Merchandising, Supply Chain, and Finance to keep the category healthy. Who You Are You have hands-on experience managing dropship inventory — you know how to plan and track stock you don't physically hold, coordinate with vendors on availability, and catch outages before they become customer-facing problems. You've owned replenishment and order writing for a category with real complexity — long lead times, freight considerations, or a fragmented vendor base. You're comfortable working in a planning system day to day and can pick up new tools quickly (NetSuite, Sigma, or similar planning/BI platforms). You have advanced Excel skills and are confident working with large data sets. You have a strong foundation in retail math and inventory planning concepts (OTB, WOS, sell-through). You communicate clearly with vendors and cross-functional partners, especially when flagging risk early. You naturally reach for AI in your work — at Babylist, every team uses AI daily. You're already using it to move faster and improve your output, and you stay curious about what's coming next. How You Will Make An Impact Execute replenishment and order writing across Furniture and Monitors, keeping inventory aligned to forecast and in-stock targets. Manage a dropship vendor base — tracking availability, coordinating on delivery timing, and resolving discrepancies before they hit customers. Own monthly Open-to-Buy inputs for the category: trend analysis, risk flags, and forecast updates. Deliver weekly sales and inventory recaps with clear, actionable takeaways for the planning team. Build pre-season inventory forecasts at the category, brand, and SKU level. Track out-of-stocks and discontinued items, proactively communicating risk to internal partners. Partner with Merchandising on new product introductions and assortment changes. Why This Role You'd be stepping into an established category with real scope from day one — Furniture and Monitors are being handed off as part of a broader team restructure, not built from scratch. Dropship is a genuinely different planning problem than owned inventory, and this is a chance to specialize in it rather than treat it as a footnote. You'll have direct exposure to Merchandising, Supply Chain, and Finance on a category that carries real freight and vendor complexity — good ground for someone who wants to grow into bigger scope. About Compensation We use a market-based approach to compensation. The starting salary range for this role is: $93,820 to $125,081 Your starting salary will be based on your location, experience, and qualifications, with increases over time tied to performance, role growth, and internal pay equity.
