How you will achieve success:
  • Bring deep, progressive experience in financial analysis, FP&A, or merchandising finance—ideally within retail or ecommerce—with a track record of owning complex financial strategy and earning credibility as a go-to authority across business functions.
  • Architect and maintain enterprise-grade analytical systems using SQL, Snowflake, Power BI, and advanced Excel—building scalable, self-service reporting infrastructure that elevates analytical capability across the business.
  • Lead complex financial modeling initiatives spanning PVM analysis, margin scenario planning, inventory economics, and category profitability—surfacing opportunities that shape multi-million dollar assortment and pricing decisions.
  • Define and govern merchandising finance frameworks, including pricing guardrails, margin floor policies, and assortment ROI standards, ensuring analytical consistency and financial discipline at scale.
  • Operate as a senior cross-functional voice, translating complex analytical work into clear strategic recommendations for VP- and C-level stakeholders—driving alignment, accelerating execution, and elevating the standard for data-driven decision-making across the company.

    • What experiences will help you in this role:
  • Deep expertise partnering with Merchandising and Category leadership, functioning as a trusted advisor on pricing architecture, promotional investment, assortment strategy, and category P&L ownership—not just reporting, but driving the agenda.
  • Expert-level command of Price, Volume, Mix (PVM) analysis, with a demonstrated ability to build frameworks from scratch, diagnose complex business drivers, and deliver financial narratives that directly influence executive-level commercial strategy.
  • Proven track record leading the financial architecture for new SKU, brand, and assortment launches—including forward-looking margin models, cannibalization frameworks, scenario planning, and post-launch performance systems that feed ongoing investment decisions.
  • Advanced experience in marketing spend analytics and incrementality measurement, with the ability to independently evaluate ROI trade-offs, model demand elasticity, and partner with Marketing and FP&A to optimize the relationship between spend, margin, and inventory positioning.
  • Hands-on fluency in SQL and Snowflake for large-scale data extraction, transformation, and self-service analytics—able to independently source and shape complex datasets without reliance on data engineering, and build the analytical foundation that powers merchandising insights at scale.
  • Seasoned perspective in retail or omnichannel finance—brick-and-mortar, ecommerce, or both—with the ability to translate institutional knowledge of SKU economics, inventory turn, and operational rigor into scalable analytical infrastructure.
