Manager of e-commerce planning leading demand forecasting, S&OP, and operational strategy for Whole Foods Market.
This is a high-visibility role that sits at the intersection of Strategy, Operations, Finance, and Technology. You will manage a team of program managers and planners, set the strategic planning agenda, and be the single-threaded leader accountable for the accuracy, cadence, and outcomes of E-Commerce planning.

Own short-term S&OP: demand and capacity planning, forecast accuracy, and the weekly operating rhythm that drives near-term operational execution.
Direct mid-term metro optimization: network and metro-level capacity, staffing, and service-type planning across the 3–12 month horizon.
Steward the long-term real estate and capacity pipeline, partnering with Operations and Real Estate to align the network with multi-year growth priorities.
Partner cross-functionally with Operations, Merchandising, Finance, and Technology to define planning strategy, resolve trade-offs, and drive alignment on complex, ambiguous problems.
Build and continuously improve planning processes, tools, and mechanisms; identify opportunities to streamline, automate, and raise the bar on planning rigor and accuracy.
Translate planning insights into recommendations for senior leadership; sharpen the organization’s focus on customer experience, subscriptions growth, and disciplined forward-looking planning.
