The posting

Leader Tech is a world leading innovator and manufacturer of EMI shielding products for circuit boards, electronic enclosures, interconnect cables and Thermal solutions founded in 1984. The Company serves a diverse commercial and military customer base from its Global EMI Shielding Technology Center located in Tampa, Florida. Every detail of the company’s one-of-a-kind manufacturing facility is tailor-engineered to streamline and improve customer service, engineering and manufacturing processes.

Position Overview

The Production Control Supervisor provides leadership for Leader Tech’s production planning, scheduling, and purchasing functions, with responsibility for delivery performance, material readiness, capacity alignment, and the effectiveness of departmental processes. Reporting to the Director of Operations, this position manages a team of three Production Control professionals and two Purchasing professionals.

The supervisor integrates customer demand, manufacturing capacity, and supplier commitments into achievable production plans. The role partners with Engineering, Customer Service, Manufacturing, Quality, and support functions to resolve constraints, support schedule execution, and improve operational performance through effective communication, employee development, and disciplined use of SYSPRO.

Key Responsibilities

  • Production Planning and Scheduling: Manage the demand forecasts, and planning process, aligning customer requirements with material availability, manufacturing lead times, tooling, and operation sequencing. Maintain schedule integrity, adjust schedules in response to changes in demand, capacity, or priorities, and coordinate changes that support customer delivery commitments.
  • Capacity Planning and Manufacturing Coordination: Evaluate production demand against available labor, equipment, tooling, and work-center capacity. Partner closely with manufacturing leadership through regular floor coordination to assess schedule performance, address bottlenecks, and develop recovery plans while maintaining achievable workloads.
  • Purchasing and Material Readiness: Support the purchasing team in achieving supplier delivery commitments and material readiness for on-time production starts. Ensure buyers have the information, resources, and cross-functional support needed to perform their responsibilities effectively. Monitor material risks and supplier performance, remove barriers, and drive escalated shortages, discrepancies, and outside-processing delays to resolution. Coach the team on purchasing controls and accurate SYSPRO records, and use performance data to improve processes, communication, and material flow.
  • Cross Functional Leadership: Serve as the principal liaison among Production Control, Purchasing, Engineering, Customer Service, Manufacturing, Quality, Receiving, Warehouse, and operational support teams. Maintain effective material flow, facilitate timely resolution of technical and scheduling issues, coordinate ship-date requests and updates, and communicate production status, delivery risks, decisions, corrective actions, and recovery plans.
  • Systems and Performance Management: Manage consistent use of SYSPRO and established planning and purchasing procedures. Maintain reliable planning data, establish and track department KPI targets, analyze performance trends, and present operational risks and improvement priorities to leadership.
  • People Leadership and Development: Assign work and manage team performance, priorities, resource allocation, and accountability. Coach and mentor employees, provide training and cross-training, and establish consistent work practices that strengthen sound decision-making, collaboration, safety, quality, continuous improvement, and departmental effectiveness.
  • Quality and Continuous Improvement: Lead improvements in planning accuracy, schedule reliability, material flow, purchasing effectiveness, and communication. Apply Lean principles and root-cause analysis to eliminate bottlenecks, reduce delays, recurring errors, and process waste, and support corrective actions for recurring NCRs and quality issues while maintaining alignment with applicable AS9100, ISO, customer, and company requirements.

Qualifications and Requirements

  • Education: Associate’s degree or higher required.
  • Experience: Minimum of five years of experience in manufacturing production control, planning, scheduling, or materials coordination, including experience coordinating purchasing and production requirements. Prior supervisory or team leadership experience preferred.
  • ERP and Scheduling: Proficiency in ERP and MRP systems and production scheduling required. SYSPRO experience strongly preferred, with the ability to maintain accurate system data and use it to guide daily decisions.
  • Analysis and Improvement: Strong Excel and production reporting skills, with demonstrated attention to detail and accuracy. Working knowledge of capacity planning, bills of material, routers, manufacturing lead times, supplier coordination, inventory controls, and Lean Manufacturing or continuous improvement methods.
  • Leadership and Communication: Demonstrated ability to develop employees, manage performance, exercise sound judgment, and build effective cross-functional partnerships. Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills, with the ability to resolve competing priorities in a demanding manufacturing environment.
  • Manufacturing Quality: Experience in an AS9100 or ISO 9001 manufacturing environment preferred, particularly aerospace, defense, electronics, or precision component manufacturing.

Performance Measures

Establish department KPI targets in collaboration with the Director of Operations, define reporting methods, and evaluate results to guide improvement priorities. Key measures include:

  • On-time production starts, schedule adherence, and contribution to on-time shipping.
  • On-time material readiness for scheduled starts and reduction of starts delayed by shortages.
  • Realistic capacity loading, timely schedule adjustments, and effective coordination with the production floor.
  • Accuracy of job releases, purchase orders, purchasing records, supplier pricing, forecasts, min/max parameters, and SYSPRO records.
  • Timely acknowledgment, follow-up, completion, and communication of ship-date requests and updates, including accurate SYSPRO date changes.
  • Timely communication of delivery risks, closure of open issues, team development, and completion of improvement actions.

Work Schedule and Authority
