Company Description

We’re RCL - Reitmans Canada Limited. We’ve been part of the fabric of Canada’s fashion landscape since 1926, and today, we’re elevating our iconic brands – Reitmans, RW&CO, and PENN. Penningtons – more than ever before.

Our vision is to empower Canadians to live confidently, and our mission is to create collections of uncompromising style and quality for all. 

With close to 400 stores nationwide and collections designed right here at home, in Canada, we offer an exceptional customer experience. What drives us? A clear vision, unwavering commitment to our customers, and the passion of our thousands of employees across the country.

Job Description

Nearly 100 years of retail. And we’re still changing.

Reitmans has been part of Canadian fashion for nearly a century — but we’re much more interested in what comes next.

Retail is moving fast. How customers shop, how we buy and how we get the right product to the right place at the right time is constantly evolving.

That’s where you come in.

The Opportunity

Contract 18- months

As an Allocation Analyst, you’ll work at the intersection of fashion, data and business.

Partnering closely with our Buying team, you’ll turn product strategies and customer behaviour into smart inventory decisions — looking at what’s selling, where the opportunities are and what we should do next.

If you love fashion but also love understanding the why behind the numbers, you’ll feel right at home.

What You’ll Do

  • Partner with our Buying team to understand each season’s product and customer strategy and translate it into smart allocation decisions.
  • Analyze performance across stores and digital channels, spotting trends and adjusting inventory based on what our customers are telling us.
  • Connect the dots between Buying, Planning and Distribution to make sure the right product is in the right place at the right time.
  • Anticipate inventory needs around promotions, launches and key business moments while maximizing product performance.
  • Keep our allocation systems, inventory information and reporting accurate so teams can make better, faster decisions.

Ready to Help Shape What’s Next?

This is more than moving inventory. It’s using data, curiosity and commercial instinct to influence how a Canadian fashion brand shows up for its customers.

Come help us shape the next 100 years of Reitmans.

Qualifications

  • You have a university degree in Commerce or a college diploma in Commerce, Fashion Marketing or a related field, along with at least 1 year of relevant experience.
