  • Coordinate the execution of private label modifications, club store multi-packs, exclusive SKUs, and custom point-of-purchase merchandising displays.
  • Act as the primary coordinator between product development, sourcing, legal/regulatory, design, and sales and other teams to ensure flawless launch synchronization.
  • Proactively identify project delays, resource constraints, or supply chain bottlenecks, implementing swift mitigation strategies to keep launches on schedule.
  • Coordinate artwork and packaging specifications to meet strict animal feed, pet supplement, or pet toy safety standards and individual retailer guidelines.
  • Provide clear, routine status updates, risk assessments, and post-launch evaluation reports to executive leadership and key stakeholders.

Required Skills & Abilities:

  • Lives the company values of integrity, efficiency, accountability, collective intelligence, and transparency.
  • Deep understanding of stage-gate product development processes, manufacturing lead times, retail routing guides, and display standards (e.g., PDQs, pallets, sidekicks).
  • Proficiency with modern project management tools such as Asana, Monday.com, Smartsheet, or Jira, alongside MS Excel.
  • Outstanding communication, conflict resolution, and matrix management capabilities, with extreme attention to detail.

Education & Experience:

  • 3–5+ years of dedicated project management experience within a CPG environment; background in pet care, animal health, or food/beverage industries is highly preferred.
  • Proven track record of successfully onboarding major retail accounts (e.g., Target, Petco, Chewy, Walmart) and working through vendor compliance portals.
  • Bachelor’s degree in business, Supply Chain, Operations, or a related field. PMP or Scrum Master certification is a strong plus.
