The Role

Buc-ee's is hiring Category Analysts to analyze and improve performance across major merchandise categories. This role sits at the intersection of data, pricing, merchandising, suppliers, and in-store execution. You will not simply report numbers. You will identify opportunities, influence decisions, and help drive category performance. Ideal candidates will bring fresh perspectives, with no background in category management required.

What You'll Be Responsible For

  • Creating and developing a long-term plan and ongoing strategy for development of the category
  • Manage, analyze, and monitor market changes in product mix and retail prices to ensure compliance to the category pricing strategy
  • Analyze category performance including sales, margin, pricing, and assortment
  • Identify opportunities through SKU performance, pricing analysis, and promotional effectiveness
  • Build and maintain category performance dashboards and reporting
  • Conduct competitive analysis and market monitoring
  • Support SKU rationalization and assortment planning
  • Turn data into clear insights and recommendations
  • Project management which will include developing project plans, processes, and timeline
  • Partner with IT and data teams to understand enterprise reporting and data flows
  • Develop key supplier relationships for category management initiatives

Who This Role Is For

This role is for high judgment, high output analysts who:

  • Think clearly with imperfect data
  • Can identify meaningful insights inside large datasets
  • Communicate conclusions simply and clearly
  • Care about improving outcomes, not just building reports

Expertise is only as valuable as your willingness to evolve. We prioritize candidates who are agile learners and eager to challenge their own assumptions to find better ways. Experience is not required.

Required Capabilities

  • Advanced Excel skills (non-negotiable)
  • Experience working with large datasets
  • Strong analytical and organizational ability
  • Data visualization experience (Tableau, MicroStrategy, or similar)
  • Clear written and verbal communication
  • Ability to manage multiple analytical priorities simultaneously

Education & Experience

  • BA/BS + 24 years relevant experience
  • or
  • Master's degree + 12 years relevant experience

We value capability and judgment over pedigree.

Benefits

  • 25 days PTO (use it, cash it, or roll it)
  • Medical, Dental, Vision
  • 401(k) with 100% match up to 6%
  • Long-term growth and advancement opportunities

This is an in-office role. Remote work is not available.

Joining our team puts you on a path where opportunity for advancement is available.
