Our Planners are an eclectic mix of strategic problem-solvers and creative analytical thinkers who love products.
They analyse and forecast financial and product trends, review the performance of our products, and make sure that sufficient stock is available.
They also work with brands and suppliers to negotiate price structures, delivery dates, specific merchandise requirements and contracts so that we continue to meet our goals.
They are key in rolling out company-wide projects and have a keen eye for process improvement and streamlining – they are dedicated to efficiency and love the numbers.
