About You You're a sharp, commercially minded planner who thrives at the intersection of data and strategy. You find equal satisfaction in building a precise bottoms-up forecast and presenting an inventory recommendation to senior leadership. You're naturally collaborative, comfortable navigating cross-functional teams, and confident enough to push back on a buy when the numbers don't support it. About The Role As Manager, Planning, you will lead merchandise planning for GWYN, goop's fashion label, while supporting supply planning across goop Beauty and inventory analysis for the multi-brand business. Reporting to the Senior Director, Planning, you will partner closely with Merchandising, Buying, Supply Chain, Product Development, Wholesale, Retail, Ecommerce, and Finance to develop demand forecasts, inventory investment strategies, and supply plans that support company financial objectives. This is a highly analytical and cross-functional role requiring someone who is equally comfortable building financial plans as they are influencing business decisions. The ideal candidate has strong commercial judgment and the confidence to make data-driven recommendations—including when that means recommending not to invest in inventory. Responsibilities include: Lead Open-to-Buy management for GWYN, building receipt plans aligned with sales forecasts, inventory targets, margin expectations, and cash flow objectives; continuously evaluate business performance and recommend adjustments, including reducing, delaying, or accelerating receipts as conditions evolve. Own preseason and in-season merchandise plans by collection, category, channel, and month, including bottoms-up sales, demand, inventory, and receipt plans by collection, SKU, and channel. Develop size curve forecasts by style, color, and size with Merchandising; translate demand forecasts into purchase order recommendations, receipt timing, and inventory requirements in partnership with Buying and Supply Chain. Own inventory allocation recommendations across Ecommerce and Retail; monitor inventory productivity, WOS, sell-through, and stock position, recommending replenishment, markdown, and inventory mitigation actions. Support supply planning for goop Beauty by maintaining demand forecasts, supply plans, and replenishment visibility for finished goods and components; proactively identify and address low WOS, out-of-stock, and excess inventory risks. Partner with Wholesale, Ecommerce, Retail, Amazon, Merchandising, and Finance to align sales forecasts and inventory investments; analyze weekly business performance and recommend actions to improve sales, inventory productivity, and profitability. Develop executive reporting, planning analysis, and recommendations to support business reviews; maintain and improve planning tools, forecasting models, and reporting processes. Qualifications & Experience 5+ years of merchandise planning experience in fashion or specialty retail, with direct ownership of Open-to-Buy and inventory investment decisions. Demonstrated ability to build and manage bottoms-up financial plans at the SKU, category, and channel level; strong proficiency in Excel and planning systems (e.g., Netsuite, Looker, or equivalent). Experience in supply planning or demand planning within a beauty, CPG, or multi-brand environment is a strong plus. Proven cross-functional partnership experience with Merchandising, Buying, Supply Chain, Finance, and Ecommerce teams to align forecasts and drive business performance. Strong analytical and commercial judgment; comfortable making data-driven inventory recommendations, including conservative calls when risk outweighs return. Excellent communication and executive reporting skills, with the ability to distill complex inventory analysis into clear, actionable insights for senior leadership.

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years. Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
