About the RoleWe're looking for a Vendor Central expert to step in as the day to day Amazon account owner for Hormel Foods. This is an operations and client management role, not a media or advertising role. You'll own the Amazon portal work, project tracking, and behind the scenes strategy across account, brand, and retailer management, working closely with Hormel's brand teams, the agency's sales and supply chain teams, and Amazon directly.
This account is 1P only (Vendor Central, not Seller Central).
What You'll DoAmazon Operations
- Manage PO review every Monday and every other Tuesday, deciding what to accept or decline before approval windows close, and maintain the PO Summary
- Pull and analyze sales and inventory data in Vendor Central to support forecasting
- Track weeks of cover (WOC) and inventory against promotions and strategic goals
- Own catalog health: content uploads, New Item Setup (NIS) production and review, listing troubleshooting, and Amazon support cases
Client and Amazon Relationships
- Serve as a primary point of contact across Hormel, the agency team, and Amazon, keeping communication moving between all three
- Lead or co lead meetings with Amazon buyers, SBs, and Amazon Fresh contacts
- Show up polished and prepared on a heavy, camera on meeting schedule with Hormel and internal teams
- Partner with the Sales Lead to support Hormel's individual brand teams in hitting their goals
- Support prep and follow up for Amazon QBRs and Annual Vendor Negotiations (AVNs)
Planning and Project Management
- Plan for tentpole events like Prime Day, including performance analysis, funding and cost modeling, and merchandising strategy
- Maintain project trackers and manage timelines across multiple workstreams
- Deliver ad hoc reporting and insights to support strategy and client communication
QualificationsWhat We're Looking ForPlease make sure your resume incudes your Vendor Central experience with your application or in your resume (accounts managed, scope of work, and how long you've worked in the platform)
Must Haves
- Deep, hands on Vendor Central (1P) experience. You can navigate the platform, diagnose issues, and solve problems independently
- PO management experience, including the cost and timing implications of accepting or declining orders
- Forecasting and inventory planning within Amazon's ecosystem
- Catalog and content operations experience, including support case management
- Advanced Excel skills for data pulls, analysis, and reporting
- Strong project management and proactive communication across multiple workstreams
- Confident, polished client presence
- Self directed. You'll be expected to own your work from day one with minimal ramp up
Nice to Haves
- Experience on Fortune 500 or large CPG brand accounts
- Prime Day or other tentpole event planning on Amazon
- Amazon Vendor Negotiations experience
- Based in the Eastern time zone
