    Job Description

    We are looking for an accomplished Vice President of Inventory Management who thrives on transforming strategic plans into actionable, ground-level operational successes. This hands-on leadership role is suited for a proactive leader who excels in environments requiring adherence to standardized operational procedures (SOP) and is proficient in advanced inventory management through sophisticated ERP systems.

    Key Responsibilities:

    • Advanced Strategy Development: Formulate and execute innovative inventory management strategies, focusing on demand forecasting, inventory planning, replenishment, and allocation across multiple distribution channels using integrated ERP solutions.
    • Multi-Echelon Inventory Optimization: Implement and manage inventory optimization at multiple levels, from vendors to distribution centers (DCs) and DCs to branches, ensuring efficient logistics and distribution.
    • ERP Mastery: Showcase extensive experience in demand planning and supply planning within an ERP framework, moving beyond traditional spreadsheet management to leverage the full capabilities of modern ERP systems.
    • Collaborative Leadership: Work closely with cross-functional teams, including Merchandising, Finance, Operations, and Sales, to align inventory management strategies with overarching business objectives.
    • Operational Excellence and Innovation: Drive continuous improvement and strategic innovations within inventory processes, leveraging in-depth knowledge of current industry trends and technology.
    • Educational Leadership: Equip and empower management, including the General Manager, with strategies and insights to leverage inventory management for significant business impact.

    Qualifications:

    • Educational Background: Bachelor's Degree in Supply Chain, Operations, Management, or a related field. Advanced certifications such as CSCP are highly regarded.
    • Professional Experience: A minimum of 8-10 years of progressive leadership experience in inventory management, specifically within retail and multi-site distribution contexts. Experience in both large and small organizational settings is preferred.
    • Strategic and Operational Expertise: Demonstrated ability to strategize at a high level and engage directly in the nuts and bolts of day-to-day operations. Proven capability to adapt plans to meet dynamic market conditions and organizational transitions.
    • Mentorship and Influence: Strong ability to mentor senior management, including teaching and guiding General Managers in understanding the strategic impacts of inventory management.

    Additional Requirements:

    • Hands-on Leadership: This is not merely a strategic role; candidates must be prepared to engage directly with operations, including ongoing transitions such as new catalog integrations and private label shifts expected in the coming summer.
    • Travel: Willingness to travel up to 15% of the time to ensure alignment across network operations.

    This position is pivotal for candidates who are strategic thinkers, relish the challenge of high-level operational management, and are passionate about implementing and guiding significant changes within a business. If you have a robust background in inventory management through advanced ERP systems and are eager to lead from the front, we invite you to apply and help shape the future of our operations.
