About the team and position

The Senior Analyst, Capacity Planning at ADESA (owned by Carvana) will play a pivotal role in optimizing the layout and efficiency of our inspection centers and auction facilities. As Carvana continues to grow and ADESA's auctioning facilities play a major role, this position is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the success by ensuring smooth, organized, and efficient use of our auction spaces.

This position involves analyzing and interpreting data to ensure the most effective use of space, accommodating various vehicle sizes and maximizing storage capacity.
