About the role

Wayfair is expanding its physical retail footprint with a Director-level role based in Boston. You will shape store strategy, build merchandising models, and lead a planning team to optimize sales, margins and inventory. You will report to the Director of Planning + Allocation, Wayfair, Physical Retail, and supervise senior managers and analysts to drive growth. The role emphasizes leadership, cross-functional collaboration, and data-driven decision making in a fast-growing omnichannel

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
