    CarMax, the way your career should be

    About The Team
    The Supply Strategy team is a community of analysts with a variety of strategic and technical skillsets.

    We work together to continually improve CarMax's ability to optimize the acquisition, movement, and reconditioning of each of the over 900,000 vehicles we sold to retail customers last year, as well as optimizing our auctions for the over 700,000 wholesale cars we sold to other dealers.

    Our team tackles complex problems while striving to be a great representation of CarMax's 4 core values:

    Do the Right Thing :
    We prioritize maintaining the culture of integrity which has set CarMax apart in the used car industry, and promote a respectful and inclusive environment at work

    Put People First :
    We're focused on nurturing associate development and on maintaining a healthy work culture, while also making sure our customers are offered a great experience

    Win Together :
    Teamwork is essential to what we do; we regularly learn from each other and draw on each other's expertise and perspectives

    Go for Greatness :
    We continually improve our abilities and the products that we support, to reinforce CarMax's position as an industry leader

    About The Role
    CarMax relies on our supply chain as a key differentiator.

    Key questions include how many cars we should acquire, which acquisition channels we should prioritize, how to optimize those channels, how to efficiently move millions of cars a year, when and where to recondition those vehicles, how to best allocate the retail cars across our 200+ stores, and how to maximize profitability in our auctions for our wholesale cars.

    Doing so ensures that we have the right cars at the right prices in the right location to meet our retail and wholesale customers' needs.

    As we continue to innovate our business and shift more of our buying and selling online, we increasingly need to answer those questions quickly with less human intervention.

    Our team of business analysts play a critical role in unlocking the business value from these innovations by partnering closely with our Operations and Product/Technology business partners.


    As a Manager of Strategy & Analytics, you will work with business partners from our Product organization, as well as members of our field execution team to make key recommendations and ensure our Supply Chain is optimized to support our strategic goals.

    What You Will Do – Essential Responsibilities
    Some of our roles lean towards partnering more closely with the Product organization and serving as product analyst.

    In those roles, a successful manager of strategy would:

    Be a strategic thought partner for our product organization by closely partnering with a product manager to help define the strategic direction of one area of our supply chain
    Demonstrate analytic excellence through ensuring we appropriately set up and read product tests, providing a data-backed perspective to opportunity solution tree exercises, and own the creation and maintenance of reports and dashboards to monitor KPIs
    Present recommendations to product executives to collect buy in
    Other roles lean towards partnering more closely with our Field Operations organization and serving as an operational analyst.

    In those roles, a successful manager would:
    Drive execution through the identification of KPIs, target setting, and the creation of management systems and accompanying reporting suites to drive accountability
    Support the implementation of change initiatives by consulting on key strategic problems and analytical work tracks
    Present insights and recommendations to key business partners to achieve consensus for change

    Qualifications and Requirements
    Ability to consistently deliver at a high level on the responsibilities listed above.

    Requirements listed below are representative of the knowledge and skills required:
    4+ years' experience in an analytical or strategic role
    Four-year undergraduate degree with strong academic performance
    Experience conducting large scale data analysis to support conclusions, and a willingness to gain proficiency in data analysis tools such as SQL, or Tableau
    Ability to communicate complex topics to influence executive thinking and improve field execution
    Willingness and enthusiasm to collaborate with a team of passionate analysts and business partners who are regularly shaping strategy at a big-picture and a detailed level


    Work Location and Arrangement:


    This role will be based out of the CarMax Technology Innovation Center (Richmond, VA) and associates will work onsite 5 days per week.


    Work Authorization:
    Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis.

    Sponsorship will

    not

    be considered for this specific role
