ABOUT EMILY MOON
I am an experienced Buyer with 8 years of experience in the garment, wholesale, retail, and distribution industry. I successfully managed a substantial inventory portfolio of approximately $6M, overseeing the procurement of various materials, equipment, supplies, and services. By nurturing strong relationships with vendors/suppliers, I facilitated improved delivery times and secured preferential pricing terms, effectively enhancing operational efficiency. Implementing an innovative system to track and manage expired products, I streamlined warehouse procedures, contributing to enhanced productivity. Through meticulous planning and monitoring, I maintained optimal inventory levels, reducing excess stock by 15% and improving inventory turnover by 10%. Additionally, I provided valuable supervision to key account personnel, offering guidance, conducting performance reviews, and resolving any operational issues efficiently.My experience goes beyond that of an assistant buyer, as my past job at Disney also focused on garment construction, project management, and vendor relations.I am skilled in Microsoft Office programs, sales, and leadership.I am an analytical professional with a Bachelor\'s Degree in Fashion Merchandising from LIM College in New York, NY.
