Company Description

Overview

SPANX isn't your average company. We revolutionized an industry by challenging the status quo and putting the customer first.

While we live in the fashion and retail world, we don't obsess trends, rules or conventional ways of running a business.

Rather - we set the trends, create solutions, and we obsess product with out-of-the-box-thinking and patented technology.

Spanx is beloved around the world by customers and celebrities alike for our comfort-first approach to must-haves like shapewear, apparel, jeans, active, leggings, bras and beyond! We elevate women through product and empower them to look and feel their best.

And we think we've only scratched the surface. We are a high-growth, innovative and ambitious company and we are embarking on an exciting trajectory of both digital and international expansion.

The Merchandise Planning Coordinator will be supporting the overall Merchandise Planning team through overseeing Production Order Management, supporting Inventory Management, and Production tasks.
