Message

At Sportsmans Warehouse, I coordinate approximately 1,100 SKUs across apparel and accessories, working with 16 suppliers on product launches, orders, deliveries and range reviews.

I track buying and ordering deadlines, investigate delivery risks, and coordinate corrective actions with suppliers and teams across Planning, Marketing, Operations, Supply Chain, e-commerce and stores.

I manage website product content and support creative and marketing work, from writing product descriptions to coordinating photography and reviewing artwork. I also create reports and process guides to help colleagues track work and deadlines.

Earlier, I supported development of a vegan cheese range at Ambassador Foods and ran an online clothing business, managing sourcing, inventory, marketing and customer service.
