Partner cross-functionally with Supply Chain, Marketing, Operations, and Finance to execute strategies effectively.

Develop and maintain strong, collaborative vendor relationships that drive innovation, profitability, and long-term value. Partner closely with the O’Reilly U.S. merchandising team to support the development of differentiated and proprietary product offerings for the Canadian market. Represent the category in key forums, including Joint Business Planning, promotional planning, and cross-functional initiatives.

Take accountability for key decisions and results. Contribute to a culture of learning, collaboration, and continuous improvement — for yourself and those around you.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
