Job Description:

As a Merchandising Analyst, you will play a key role in shaping channel and account-specific merchandising strategies through sales forecasting, financial planning, and assortment analysis. Your work directly influences how Funko builds compelling product assortments and meets the needs of retailers and fans alike—without direct responsibility for inventory management.

Job Responsibility:

  • Analyze historical sales, POS trends, and category performance to build accurate forecasts
  • Partner with Sales, Merchandising, and Demand Planning to align forecasts with promotional plans, launches, and seasonal cadences
  • Identify sales opportunity gaps and develop data-driven recommendations to drive future growth
  • Support annual and seasonal financial plans by modeling revenue, margin, and productivity targets across product lines
  • Provide insights on sales drivers, product performance, and financial risks/opportunities to guide strategic decision-making
  • Build reporting dashboards to track performance against plan and inform leadership on trends affecting profitability
  • Partner with Merchandising and Sales teams to determine the optimal mix of styles, franchises, colors, and sizes to support account strategies
  • Conduct SKU-level and collection-level analyses to evaluate assortment productivity and recommend additions, deletions, or SKU rationalization
  • Ensure product assortments support brand priorities, market trends, and account-specific consumer preferences
  • Work closely with Sales, Merchandising, Marketing, and Demand Planning to ensure alignment on assortment strategy, forecasting assumptions, and financial targets
  • Present insights and recommendations to leadership and cross-functional partners to influence go-to-market strategy
  • Utilize Power BI, Microsoft Dynamics, and Excel to analyze large data sets, model scenarios, and create visual reporting dashboards
  • Maintain strong data hygiene and ensure reporting accuracy for business-critical decisions

Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Merchandising, Analytics, or a related field
  • 3–5 years of experience in merchandising planning, sales planning, or financial planning within consumer products or retail
  • Strong analytical and mathematical skills with the ability to synthesize insights into clear recommendations
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with experience presenting analytical findings to non-technical audiences
  • Proficiency in Power BI, Microsoft Dynamics, and Excel (advanced formulas, pivot tables, data modeling)
  • Detail-oriented, highly organized, and comfortable analyzing complex datasets
What we offer:
  • Competitive compensation package with full benefits
  • 401(K) plan with matching contributions from the company
  • Creative work environment
