Copper Compression Jobs in Usa

About the Role

Copper Compression is seeking a Supply & Demand Planner to own end-to-end inventory planning, purchasing, and replenishment across all sales channels. This role is the operational backbone of our business—responsible for ensuring the right product is in the right place at the right time across Amazon, Walmart, CVS, and other Food, Drug, and Mass channels, as well as our DTC channel.

This is a high-trust, high-autonomy position. You will work directly with the President, VP of Digital Commerce, VP of Wholesale Sales, and our Controller. We’re looking for someone who is proactive, detail-oriented, consistent, collaborative, and takes pride in getting things right before being asked.

Key Responsibilities

Demand Planning & Forecasting

• Build, maintain, and continuously refine demand forecasts by SKU across all channels, incorporating historical sales data, promotional calendars, seasonal trends, and retailer-specific inputs.

• Develop channel-specific demand plans for Amazon (US FBA), Walmart (replenishment), CVS, Menards, off-price (TJX/Marshalls), Wegmans, Harris Teeter, and Publix.

• Partner with Sales and Marketing to integrate new product launches, promotional events, and retailer commitments into the demand plan.

• Proactively flag demand signals, risks, and variances—surface issues before they become problems.

Supply Planning & Purchasing

• Manage purchase orders and replenishment timelines across domestic and international suppliers.

• Maintain and optimize reorder points, safety stock levels, and lead time assumptions by SKU and channel.

• Coordinate inbound shipments to Amazon FBA warehouses, 3PL partners, and retailer distribution centers.

• Track open POs, shipment statuses, and landed cost inputs; escalate delays or issues immediately.

Amazon FBA & Marketplace Operations

• Own Amazon FBA inventory health: manage inbound shipping plans, monitor IPI scores, track stranded inventory, and ensure replenishment cadence meets velocity.

• Navigate Amazon’s restock limits, storage fees, and policy changes (e.g., barcode/commingling requirements, MCF shipments).

• Work closely with the VP of Digital Commerce on FBA operational execution and troubleshooting.

Multi-Channel Inventory Management

• Maintain a consolidated inventory position across all channels and warehouse locations.

• Allocate inventory strategically based on channel priority, margin profile, and retailer fill-rate requirements.

• Manage retailer-specific replenishment programs (EDI, vendor portals, manual PO workflows).

• Produce weekly inventory and sales reporting by channel—delivered consistently, on time, without being asked.

Reporting & Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Deliver daily/weekly sales and inventory reports to leadership, organized by channel and product category.

• Provide clear, structured data to Finance for cost analysis, margin tracking, and cash flow planning.

• Collaborate with Product on new item setup, packaging timelines, and initial inventory builds.

• Serve as the connective tissue between Sales, Finance, Product, and Operations—ensuring everyone is working from the same numbers.

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years in supply/demand planning, inventory management, or purchasing for a multi-channel consumer products business.

• Deep Amazon FBA expertise: hands-on experience with FBA inbound workflows, restock limits, IPI management, shipment plans, and Seller Central operations.

• Multi-channel retail experience: proven track record managing inventory and replenishment for national retailers (grocery, mass, drug, off-price).

• ERP proficiency: experience working in an ERP system (Fulfil, NetSuite, SAP, or similar) for purchasing, inventory, and order management.

• Advanced Excel/Google Sheets: pivot tables, VLOOKUP/INDEX-MATCH, data modeling, and scenario analysis are second nature.

• Strong analytical mindset: comfortable pulling data, identifying trends, and translating insights into action.

• Excellent communication: ability to work across departments and communicate clearly with leadership, sales, and external partners.

What Sets You Apart

Beyond the technical requirements, we place enormous value on intangibles. The right candidate will bring:

• Ownership mentality — You don’t wait to be told. You see what needs to happen and you handle it.
