ABOUT THE ROLE
The Demand Forecasting & Insights team at Peloton combines rigorous analysis with a strategic mindset to (i) forecast consumer demand for Peloton’s products and services, (ii) communicate the forecast and demand trends to stakeholders across the business and (iii) facilitate strategic decision-making to help efficiently grow demand. The leader of the team reports to Peloton’s Chief Financial Officer and members of the team have regular opportunities to interact with leaders across the C-suite. Our team is full of highly analytical individuals who know how to extract meaning from data and distill that into a clear and actionable narrative for senior leadership. We care deeply about Peloton’s mission, the broader Peloton community, and one another.
As the Senior Director, Forecasting & Insights, you will lead a team of analysts responsible for forecasting sales of connected fitness hardware (i.e. Bike, Tread, Row, and Guide), accessories, and subscriptions. The team is also responsible for diagnosing variance in actual performance vs. plan and running ad hoc analyses to inform GTM investment decisions. Success in this role requires the ability to develop and mentor a hard-working team, outstanding communication / “story-telling” abilities and a strong bias towards continuous improvement. You are someone who thrives on making an impact through your own contributions and those of the team you lead. You will drive business decisions through data-driven recommendations and strong collaboration with stakeholders across the organization (including Marketing, FP&A, Supply Chain and Product).
This role reports to Peloton’s VP of Forecasting and Insights. It is based onsite in our New York, NY office, and requires in-person attendance at least three days each week (Tuesday through Thursday).
