Senior Allocation Analyst
Job description
About the role
You will own the analytical backbone of retail allocation and replenishment across Mejuri's global fleet. This role is responsible for transforming door-level performance data into actionable allocation and replenishment decisions that drive sell-through and protect margin. You will act as the analytical partner to Merchandising and Planning, building the intelligence layer that explains how every store behaves. The position requires comfort with both deep data analysis and active collaboration in room with merchandising and planning teams. You will directly influence how inventory flows through the fleet by defining cluster logic, diagnosing performance gaps, and setting model-stock strategy. This is a role that balances quantitative rigor with commercial judgment to optimize inventory productivity across channels. You will own the narratives behind the numbers that determine which products go where and when.
Key facts
What you'll do
Own door-level performance analysis across sell-through, rate of sale, weeks of supply, in-stock rate, and productivity at the style, category, and price-point level.
Build and maintain store clusters and tiers by grouping doors around volume, productivity, capacity, and customer profile, and running seasonal cluster resets as the fleet and assortment evolve.
Construct the door- and cluster-level view of assortment productivity to identify where breadth and depth are over- or under-performing and bring insights forward to inform Merchandising's assortment decisions.
Diagnose out-of-stocks and lost sales by door and variant, quantifying demand-transfer and revenue impact to prioritize replenishment and rebalancing actions.
Develop comparable-door and comparable-style analysis to benchmark performance and seed demand for new products and new doors.
Allocate and replenish product to doors against assortments, cluster minimums, capacity, and financial targets, balancing service level against excess and aged-inventory risk while running rebalancing and inter-store transfers.
Own initial allocation for newness and new store openings, running the weekly product-drop cadence including allocation, store assortment updates, launch tracking, and early flagging of launch and delay risk.
Seed new launches with test-and-scale reads that inform go-forward depth and set opening buys for new doors as the global fleet scales.
Manage clearance and lifecycle transitions by sizing end-of-life and clearance exits by door and executing material and assortment transitions and discontinued-product flow-through.
Balance inventory across channels and nodes - store, web, DC, and concessions - positioning and pooling stock to protect service levels and enable fulfillment flexibility such as ship-from-store.
Allocate across global markets, factoring the different lead times, sales shapes, and market requirements of the US, Canada, UK, and AU into depth and flow by region.
Optimize depth, pack, and size-curve logic by door (for example ring sizes, chain lengths) so the right quantities and variants land where they sell.
Own allocation master data and system hygiene, maintaining min/safety stock, model stock, and cluster assortments while safeguarding the integrity of weekly reconciliation and file uploads.
Build and refine scalable allocation, replenishment, and reporting tools and models that grow with the business to support increasingly complex fleet needs.
Close the loop between allocation decisions and on-the-ground performance by coordinating with store operations, logistics, and merchandising partners.
Requirements
You have a bachelor's degree in a quantitative field or equivalent practical experience.

You are highly proficient in SQL and Excel, with the ability to manipulate large data sets and build clear analytical logic.
You have experience building and maintaining store clusters, tiers, and model-stock strategies in a multi-market retail environment.
You are comfortable working with cross-functional stakeholders including merchandising, planning, logistics, and store operations.
You have a strong command of inventory management principles, including sell-through, weeks of supply, in-stock rate, and service level trade-offs.
You are comfortable managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced retail environment and can communicate insights clearly to both analytical and non-analytical audiences.
Nice to have
Experience with allocation and replenishment systems used in retail or luxury goods environments.
Familiarity with demand forecasting processes and tools used to support new product introductions.
Experience visualizing performance using BI tools and presenting insights to senior stakeholders.
Understanding of e-commerce fulfillment models such as ship-from-store and inventory pooling across channels.
Knowledge of global retail logistics considerations including lead times, market-specific constraints, and import/export dynamics.
