⦁ Strong analytical and financial acumen, with the ability to interpret sales, margin, inventory, customer, and market data and convert insights into practical recommendations.

⦁ Working knowledge of category-management principles, including assortment planning, pricing, promotions, product lifecycle management, inventory productivity, and vendor management.

⦁ Demonstrated negotiation and influencing skills, with sound judgment regarding when to decide, recommend, or escalate.

⦁ Ability to manage defined categories or complex workstreams with moderate independence while balancing multiple priorities and deadlines.

⦁ Clear written and verbal communication skills and the ability to build effective relationships with internal partners and suppliers.

⦁ Project-management and problem-solving capability, including planning, coordination, risk identification, and follow-through.

⦁ Customer-focused mindset with awareness of channel, competitive, and market trends.
