Inventory Analyst

2nd Swing
Prairie, MN Full Time
POSTED ON 8/10/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 10/8/2026

The Inventory Analyst keeps our stock accurate, priced right, and moving across both new and used inventory. We buy, sell, and trade thousands of clubs a month, and the value of that inventory shifts constantly with season, model year, and demand. This role sits at the intersection of data and golf equipment — you'll spend as much time in spreadsheets as you do understanding the product itself.

Come work with us, not for us!

2nd Swing is a one of a kind, forward thinking, customer-centric golf retail company. Our employees are highly-valued, while working hard in a positive and supportive culture. At 2nd Swing you will find:


  • Vast Exposure to the Golf Industry
  • A Commitment to Total Well-Being
  • Opportunities to Discover Your Fit and Make an Impact
  • A Collaborative and Flexible Environment

Responsibilities:

  • Track inventory levels, aging, and sell-through across both new and used product categories
  • Monitor pricing against market comps across new and used product to keep our positioning competitive
  • Use sell-through, aging, and margin data to drive pricing decisions — identify what's moving too slowly, what needs to accelerate, and where there's room to hold price
  • Execute those changes end to end: set markdowns, promotions, and transfers, then measure the impact and adjust
  • Analyze trade-in and buy-side data to help set acquisition values by brand, model, and condition grade
  • Help plan future orders using historical sales data on comparable models and prior-season performance
  • Advise buyers on order quantity, mix, and timing so we buy into the right product at the right depth
  • Build and maintain reporting on turnover, margin, shrink, and stock accuracy
  • Partner with store and e-commerce teams to balance inventory across locations and channels
  • Flag trends — new model releases, seasonal swings, category softness

Requirements:

  • Minimum of 3 years in inventory analysis, merchandising, retail operations, or a similar analytical role
  • Experience at a company that operates both physical retail stores and an e-commerce platform
  • Hands-on experience analyzing inventory across both channels, including how stock performs differently in-store versus online
  • Golf industry knowledge: familiarity with brands, model cycles, and equipment condition standards
  • Strong Excel skills (pivot tables, VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, large data sets); experience with an ERP or inventory management system
  • Comfort working with imperfect data and drawing practical conclusions from it
  • Ability to move fast and stay nimble — the business moves quickly and priorities can shift week to week
  • Detail orientation and follow-through

Full-Time Benefits:


  • Employee Programs
  • Paid Time Off and Holidays
  • 401k with eligible company match
  • Health Insurance
  • HSA/FSA options
  • Discounted Merchandise
  • Continued Training and Development
  • Work Life Balance

Compensation: $80,000 - $110,000 based on previous experience.
