Responsibilities:

  • Serve as a primary liaison between the Costco account and internal teams, translating account-specific needs into actionable priorities and ensuring consistent, timely communication across stakeholders.
  • Own long-range forecasting (12–18 months), sales flow, and inventory planning in partnership with demand planning, operations, and sales teams, with particular focus on mitigating risk around high-velocity tentpole events.
  • Manage multiple forecasting systems, actioning against updates to inventory flows, promotional plans, pricing structures, and data governance for both new and existing SKUs.

  • Partner with Strategic Sales and Analytics to deliver channel-specific promotional guidance and ensure alignment between national initiatives and account-level execution.
  • Support trade-spend optimization and healthy revenue growth by leveraging spend tools and aligning promotional investments with EBITDA objectives.
  • Contribute to sales strategy development and execution, continuously analyzing sales and operational performance to surface insights and drive improvement.
  • Lead weekly customer meetings and deliver timely financial updates, ad hoc reporting, and structured business reviews with clear, data-driven recommendations.
  • Build compelling internal and customer-facing presentations and strategic decks while maintaining a strong working knowledge of key product categories and the competitive landscape.
  • Bring intellectual curiosity and creative problem-solving to every challenge, identifying non-obvious solutions and continuously raising the bar on operational excellence.

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree required; concentration in Business, Finance, or a related field preferred.

  • Advanced proficiency in the Microsoft Office Suite; strong analytical skills and exceptional attention to detail.
  • Excellent communication, organizational, project management, and interpersonal skills.
