Collaborate with strategic suppliers to develop and refine joint business plans through regular performance reviews, monthly touchpoints, and senior-level business discussions.
Design and continuously improve vendor engagement processes, governance frameworks, planning cycles, and performance review routines to establish a consistent and scalable partnership model.
Develop reporting frameworks, scorecards, and performance metrics to evaluate supplier results, identify commercial opportunities, and support informed decision-making.
Coordinate centralized merchandising processes and initiatives, integrating category plans into cohesive execution across retail locations and digital channels.
Represent the merchandising function in cross-functional initiatives, helping ensure the successful delivery of in-store promotions, digital merchandising activities, and commercial programs.
Partner with Category Management, Merchandising Operations, Retail Planning and Analytics, Supply Chain, Store Support, Store Operations, Marketing, Loyalty, Business Technology, and Finance to drive alignment and execution.

Excellent communication, negotiation, and relationship management skills, with the ability to build trust and align stakeholders around shared objectives.
Exceptional attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a dynamic business environment.
Ability to collaborate across diverse functions and balance strategic planning with hands-on operational execution.

Benefits:
