Merchandise Planner (“Planner”)
As we strive to be a First Choice Retailer, our allocation and distribution of New Goods to stores are crucial. This responsibility is entrusted with the group’s Merchandise Planners.
The planner’s responsibility is to analyse sales and stock, to predict customer demand and ensure the new good stock is in the right place (store), at the right time. Therefore, keeping Keyline and Catalogue availabilities to the set standards without over/under stocking a store (maintain max stock holding criteria).
This involve but is not limited to the review of historic trends, stock turns and managing the catalogue of individual stores to improve the store’s new good performance. The merchandise planner will be responsible for dedicated stores that are subject to change with business needs and requirements. In the absence of a team member, additional stores may be temporarily assigned to the merchandise planner.
A planner is expected to understand that retailers have peak trade periods and leave will be limited to outside these periods. Peak trade refers to, but is not limited to, October through December of each calendar year.
The result of executing this responsibility successfully will be a growing New Good Profit Centre.
