The Opportunity

SharkNinja is looking for a Manager, Commercial Execution – Walmart to turn commercial priorities into dependable execution across Walmart stores, Walmart.com, the distribution center network, and the merchant and replenishment desks.

As the hands-on Commercial Execution owner for an assigned portfolio, you will connect Walmart’s Merchant and MerchX teams with SharkNinja Sales, Commercial Planning, Supply Planning, Customer Service, and Sales Operations.

6. Manage order-flow health with Customer Service and Supply Planning, including PO creation, confirmation, allocation, shipment timing, and fill-rate recovery actions.
7. Execute inventory strategies for assigned categories, including Direct Import, seasonal inventory builds, launch readiness, modular resets, and in-stock optimization.
8. Own Walmart supply-chain scorecards and action plans for assigned categories, including OTIF, SQEP, Supplier One, and other relevant service or compliance measures.
9. Build repeatable operating routines and reporting, using Scintilla, Retail Link, automation, and AI-enabled tools to highlight risks, opportunities, decisions, and owners.
10. Support Joint Business Planning and customer reviews, bringing an accurate operational view of forecast, inventory, supply risk, and execution readiness; escalate issues early with a recommended path forward.
