Inventory Analyst

The Inventory Analyst keeps our stock accurate, priced right, and moving across both new and used inventory. We buy, sell, and trade thousands of clubs a month, and the value of that inventory shifts constantly with season, model year, and demand. This role sits at the intersection of data and golf equipment — you'll spend as much time in spreadsheets as you do understanding the product itself. 

Come work with us, not for us!
