I supported the AB Category Management and Sales teams across the country through data mining and organization, sales analysis, report management & planogram (POG) execution. Having made the decision to relocate to St. Louis and dive back into the wonderful world of merchandising mid-2013, this role served as the perfect progression in my career. Shifting my focus back towards the retail space and leveraging the skills and expertise from my time with Target, allowed me to reignite my passion for connecting brand and consumer at the retail shelf. ◆ KEY SYSTEMS USED: JDA Space Planning Plus, Planogram Management Tool (PMT), Data Cleansing Tool (DCT), IRI, Microsoft Office◆ RETAILERS SUPPORTED: Target, 7-Eleven, ABC Liquor, Albertson's, ShopRite, Tobacco Plus⇨ Please note: This was a contract position through Envision, LLC ⇦
