Description
OVERVIEW
Marc Jacobs International, powered by the creative genius of Marc Jacobs, seeks a Demand Planner to join the Planning Team based in its New York City (SoHo) headquarters.
Successful product launches and sustained business growth require agile planning and forecasting. From the moment a product is introduced at market to the final moment it is phased out, the planning department is there every step of the way, ensuring inventory is being optimized, sales trends are being monitored, and financial plans are being met. Nested within a larger department responsible for allocations and operations, the planning team takes on the role of always approaching solutions via a supply chain lens. As a part of the team, you would be helping to achieve these goals globally across all channels by projecting sales for our best sellers, highlighting missed opportunities, and adding an analytical perspective to our business. You would be taking ownership over specific product categories and become the point person for all pertaining requests.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Marc Jacobs is a leading force in fashion, known for pioneering designs and an irreverent spirit that celebrates the everyday and the extraordinary. The brand continues to make its Marc: staying rebellious, unpredictable, and original. The core brand pillars are unexpected, utilitarian, urban, unisex, and unique. New York City in design and spirit, the teams thrive on relentless authenticity, a commitment to standing out, and inclusivity for all.
Founded on the vision of celebrating uniqueness and being Perfect as You Are, Marc Jacobs International is committed to building an equitable and inclusive culture. We value diversity of thought, background, and experience, recognizing these as essential to the spirit of innovation and creativity. We believe that the best candidate may come from a less traditional background or meet the qualifications in different ways.
SALARY & BENEFITS
The compensation for this position ranges from $73,000-80,000 annually. The rate of pay offered will be dependent upon candidate’s relevant skills and experience. Marc Jacobs uses the published salary range as a guideline to provide our employees with market competitive pay while allowing for flexibility to recognize and reward all levels of expertise, performance, and tenure.
Marc Jacobs in partnership with LVMH, offers a comprehensive and generous employee benefits package featuring medical, dental, vision insurance, short and long-term disability coverage, employee discounts, a 401k plan with employer match and automatic employee contributions.
