Job description

Omni Associate Buyer

CAMP is a Family Experience Company known for our unique shop / play hybrid experience at physical locations across the country. Our stores feature rotating themed experiences where families come to play, explore, and create unforgettable memories together. We believe that play connects us all, and at CAMP, play is bigger, bubblier, funnier, fuzzier, slimier, and sillier than anywhere else.

About the Role

Are you a highly organized, detail-oriented buyer with a passion for kids' products and a knack for spotting the next big thing? We're looking for an Omni Associate Buyer to help shape our product assortment across all channels (in-store and online). You'll report directly to the Chief Product Officer and play a critical role in hitting our revenue and profitability goals.

Location : This position offers flexibility : you can be hybrid in our Chicago or New York locations or work remotely.

Travel : Occasional travel for vendor meetings, trade shows, and in-store visits is required.

Compensation : The expected salary range for this role is $70,000 - $85,000, dependent upon your qualifications and relevant experience.

What You'll Be Doing : Key Responsibilities

As the Omni Associate Buyer, you will be the backbone of our product data and vendor management, ensuring a seamless and profitable assortment :

  • Product Assortment & Strategy : Use your merchant eye to evaluate new vendors and products, building a salable and profitable omnichannel assortment that delights our customers.
  • Inventory & Financial Planning : Partner closely with the Planning team to help manage the Open-to-Buy (OTB) and maintain inventory health.
  • Data Integrity & Management : Own the accuracy of all product data. This includes collecting item setup information, managing item maintenance, and ensuring correct product categorization across all systems.
  • Purchase Order (PO) Management : Proactively manage all vendor-communicated PO changes, including cost adjustments, item availability dates, product substitutions, and tracking updates.
  • Merchandising Support : Assist with visual and digital merchandising needs for new store launches, online campaigns, resets, and key promotional programs.
  • Reporting & Analysis : Create and pull ad-hoc reports (sales, assortment, inventory) to identify opportunities and risks, ensuring we achieve our revenue and profitability targets.
  • Cross-Functional Execution : Work effectively across teams to execute key merchandise initiatives flawlessly.

What You'll Bring to CAMP

You are a self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment and views problem-solving as a fun challenge.

  • Experience : 3-5 years of hands-on omnichannel merchandising or buying experience.
  • Product Passion : A genuine passion and a discerning eye for kids' products.
  • Operational Excellence : You are highly organized and detail-oriented. You enjoy building new, efficient processes and take pride in the quality, accuracy, and completeness of your work.
  • Communication : Strong written and verbal communication skills that enable you to build and maintain effective relationships.
  • Tech Skills : Proficiency in Google Workspace is required. Experience with Shopify and inventory management or ERP systems (like NetSuite or SAP) is a significant bonus.
  • Growth Mindset : You can gracefully give and receive feedback as part of a high-performing team.
  • Legal : Authorized to work lawfully in the United States.
