  • Support forecast development incorporating POS trends, seasonality, promotions, distribution changes, new launches, and retailer activity
  • Develop strategic promotional plans that generate incremental, profitable growth
  • Evaluate promotional programs based on expected baseline sales, incremental lift, retailer economics, brand economics, funding requirements, and ROI
  • Lead planning around rollbacks, markdowns, seasonal events, displays, features, exclusives, digital programs, and other retailer initiatives
  • Partner with brand teams to secure appropriate support and ensure alignment before commercial commitments are made
  • Conduct post-event analysis and use learnings to improve future programs
  • Serve as a senior commercial advisor to PSi's brand partners regarding Walmart and Sam's Club strategy, opportunities, and performance
