    • Collaborates with these departments to establish schedules and plans that allocate available resources to best serve client or customer needs.

    • Periodically compares current and anticipated orders with available inventory of raw materials; uses judgment to anticipate demand for and to acquire additional supplies as needed.

    • Integrates sales orders with master schedule; coordinates availability of raw materials, supplies, equipment, and staff as needed to meet delivery dates.

    • Maintains master distribution schedule for the assigned facility; revises as needed and alerts appropriate staff of schedule changes or delays.

    How you will do it:

    • Create the assembly line specific build schedules over the near-term horizon (0-12 weeks).

    • Align with Sales & Demand planning on the sales & deliverable build requirements that drive the plan.

    • Align with the Manufacturing Engineers assigned to each shop to understand shop constraints and incorporate these into the scheduling algorithm.

    • Support the Supply Chain Planning to include supply constraints (capacity / mix limitations, logistics issues) and, similarly, incorporate these into the scheduling algorithm.

    • Build the plan using Theory of Constraints & Optimization techniques to ensure that the following objectives are achieved: build mix is achieved each week, plan is structured so shops can run as efficiently as possible and critical supply chain constraints are accounted for (supplier capability issues & logistics costs, i.e. expediting) so that the lowest cost build plan is achieved

    • Lead the cross-functional change management process when issues occur inside the frozen window (1 week).

    • Build the model and run the analysis to identify the most effective solution for the plant (minimizes costs / maximizes revenue opportunity) given the issue (such as): urgent sales change requests (demand re-balancing, delivery schedule changes); Production (equipment breakdown) or supply chain (material shortage) issues

    • Coordinate the introduction of NPI into the production system

    • Attend program launch meetings to understand impacts of new variants to the production and ensure that the launch timing solves given other factory priorities

    • Participate in the daily plant operational review to understand and maintain the health of material flow through the plant.

    • Own reporting on plant status & performance (weekly, monthly & quarterly) out to production management & key partners / stakeholders in the organization.

    • Pull data from the ERP & the production management systems to understand status.

    • Use data visualization tools such as Tableau and PowerBI to generate the status reports.

    • Support operational report out to the weekly Sales & Operational Execution (S&OE) meeting.

    • 3-5 years related experience in materials management, production planning, or material scheduling in a manufacturing company is required.

    • Strong analytical capabilities - including data analysis to optimize plans relative to different constraint factors (equipment capacity, staffing plans, material availability) is required.

    • Travel: 5%-10%

    Preferred:

    • Proficiency in SAP

    • Proficiency in analytical and reporting tools (MS Excel, Tableau) is strongly desired.

    • Has demonstrated high level performance in current and previous positions.
