  • Experience in retail planning, merchandising, or inventory management strongly preferred
  • Proven ability to communicate insights to both technical and non-technical audiences

WHAT YOU’LL WORK ON

You will create and manage the financial and inventory plans that power Nike Direct. You’ll forecast demand, track performance, and partner across teams to adjust in real time—ensuring the right product hits the right consumer at the right moment.
  • Build and manage seasonal and in-season sales and inventory plans that align with merchandising and business strategies
  • Partner with Merchandising and cross-functional teams to develop consumer-right assortment and pricing strategies
  • Analyze business performance weekly, identifying risks and opportunities, and communicate actionable insights to stakeholders
