About the role

Baltic Børn is looking for a Merchandising Analyst to own the numbers behind our assortment. This role sits at the center of two things that decide whether a season works: what we charge and mark down, and how much inventory we have in the right places at the right time.

You will live in Inventory Planner by Sage, build the forecasts and replenishment plans that keep our best sellers in stock, and bring a clear point of view on where margin is being made and lost. This is a hands-on analyst role for someone who would rather own a model than manage a team — there are no direct reports, and there is a lot of ownership.

What You'll Own

Pricing & Margin

• Own markdown strategy and cadence — identify underperformers early, model the margin impact of markdown scenarios, and execute price changes within established guardrails
• Track sell-through by style, category, size, and color, and flag risk and opportunity while there is still time to act on it
• Analyze gross margin performance at the SKU and category level, including the effect of promotions, discounting, and full-price sell-through on bottom-line results
• Maintain pricing accuracy across the catalog and partner on promotional pricing and event planning
• Conduct post-season and post-promotion hindsight analysis, and turn it into recommendations for the next buy

Inventory Management

• Own replenishment planning and reorder recommendations, placing and adjusting replenishment orders independently within established thresholds
• Build and maintain demand forecasts by style and category, incorporating seasonality, launch calendars, and promotional lift
• Manage open-to-buy, keeping inventory investment aligned to sales plans and flagging when the buy needs to change
• Monitor inventory health — weeks of supply, aged and excess inventory, stockouts and lost sales — and recommend exit strategies for slow movers
• Maintain accurate item, cost, and lead-time data in Inventory Planner by Sage so that forecasts and reorder points can be trusted
• Partner with operations and vendors on inbound timing, and reforecast when delivery dates move

Reporting & Cross-Functional Partnership

• Own a recurring sell-through and inventory health report for senior leadership, with clear risk and opportunity callouts and a recommended action for each
• Build and maintain dashboards that make performance visible to the wider team without anyone having to ask for a pull
• Partner with marketing and creative on promotional calendar timing, launch support, and inventory-informed campaign planning
• Work closely with design and buying on trend and assortment decisions by bringing the data that supports or challenges them

What You Bring

• 3–5 years of experience in merchandise planning, inventory planning, pricing, or retail analytics — apparel or ecommerce strongly preferred
• Demonstrated proficiency with Inventory Planner by Sage — this is a firm requirement for the role, and you should be able to speak in detail about how you have used it for forecasting, replenishment, and purchase order planning
• Strong command of retail math: margin, markup, sell-through, weeks of supply, inventory turn, GMROI, and open-to-buy
• Advanced Excel or Google Sheets skills, and comfort working with large data sets without losing accuracy
• A track record of turning analysis into a recommendation someone acted on — not just reporting the number, but saying what to do about it
• Sound judgment operating independently within guardrails, and the instinct to escalate when a decision is above the line
• Clear written and verbal communication, including the ability to present findings to senior leadership without jargon
• High attention to detail and genuine ownership of data accuracy
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth ecommerce environment where priorities shift
• Bachelor's degree in business, merchandising, finance, supply chain, or equivalent professional experience

Nice to Have

• Experience in women's apparel or a direct-to-consumer brand
• Familiarity with Shopify and ecommerce reporting tools
• Experience with SQL, Power BI, Looker, or similar BI tools
• Exposure to vendor and purchase order management
• Experience supporting a buying or merchandising team in a growth-stage business

Benefits

• Competitive salary
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage
• Generous PTO and paid holidays
• Employee discount on Baltic Børn products
