Sales & Forecasting Analyst

Sales & Forecasting Analyst requires:

• 3+ years of analytical experience in wholesale, retail, or consumer-goods environments — with at least 2 years focused on forecasting, demand planning, or sales operations.
• Advanced Excel proficiency (pivots, complex formulas, basic modeling); comfort working in BI tools (Power BI, Tableau, or similar). Familiarity with SAP, JDA, or comparable replenishment systems is a plus.
• Demonstrated ability to work independently in ambiguous, fast-moving commercial environments — and to surface insight quickly, not perfectly.
• Strong written communication: ability to translate variance and trend data into 2–3 sentence commentary a busy commercial leader can act on.
• Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Analytics, Economics, or related field — or equivalent demonstrated experience.
• Prior exposure to luxury, fashion, or premium retail (wholesale or D2C).
• Familiarity with auto-replenishment systems (STARS or equivalent) and the operational rhythm of a wholesale-run-as-retail model.
• Experience supporting a senior commercial leader directly — comfortable with quick turnarounds and shifting priorities.
• Working knowledge of licensor-managed wholesale dynamics.
• Curiosity and operational discipline in equal measure — someone who treats forecasting as craft, not chore.

Duties:

• Provide daily eyes on the business: monitor sell-in and sell-out trends across all NA boutique brands; flag variances against budget and forecast as they occur, not at month-end.
• Drive forecasting precision: build, maintain, and refine weekly and monthly demand forecasts for the licensor
