Job Description Summary

              Â

The Supply Planner develops and maintains feasible, stable supply and production plans that translate approved demand and supply priorities into executable schedules across assigned plants, lines, or product categories. The role balances capacity, material availability, labor, changeovers, sanitation and maintenance windows, inventory targets, manufacturing efficiency, and customer service requirements. The Supply Planner serves as the execution bridge between supply planning and manufacturing by proactively identifying constraints, evaluating scenarios, recommending tradeoffs, and maintaining disciplined planning parameters and master data to improve plan reliability, execution readiness, and decision quality.

Job Description

Supply Planning & Production Scheduling

  • Develop and maintain supply and production plans across assigned plants, lines, or categories, translating approved supply requirements into executable schedules.
  • Align plans with demand priorities, capacity, material availability, labor, production rates, changeovers, sanitation and maintenance windows, and inventory objectives.
  • Manage plan and schedule stability while responding to demand shifts, supply constraints, and operational disruptions in a timely, fact-based manner.

Â

Execution Risk & Scenario Planning

  • Evaluate supply and schedule risks related to capacity, material shortages, labor constraints, downtime, yield, quality holds, changeovers, sanitation windows, and production sequencing.
  • Build scenarios for production timing, recovery plans, inventory builds, constraint mitigation, and customer impact.
  • Quantify tradeoffs across service, inventory, capacity utilization, manufacturing efficiency, cost, waste, and working capital; escalate material risks with clear options and recommended actions.

Â

Digital Planning & System-Based Decision-Making

  • Use Kinaxis Maestro and other planning tools, dashboards, alerts, scenarios, optimization outputs, and digital workflows to support exception-based supply planning and scheduling.
  • Apply a trust-but-verify mindset to system-generated plans and recommendations by validating assumptions, parameters, constraints, data quality, and operational feasibility.
  • Document override rationale, identify automation opportunities, and partner with the Planning COE, Manufacturing, and technology teams to improve workflows, master data, and adoption.

Â

Cross-Functional Alignment & Decision Support

  • Partner with Manufacturing, Supply Capacity Planning, Materials Planning, Deployment, Procurement, Logistics, Quality, Maintenance, Customer Service, Finance, and Commercial teams.
  • Facilitate alignment on production priorities, schedule feasibility, constraint resolution, recovery actions, and inventory build strategies.
  • Communicate what changed, why it matters, the service and financial implications, and the decision needed while promoting enterprise-first outcomes rather than local optimization.

Â

Planning Parameters, Performance & Continuous Improvement

  • Maintain planning and scheduling parameters, including production rates, calendars, frozen windows, changeover rules, sanitation windows, sequencing logic, material constraints, and plant master data.
  • Monitor supply plan and MPS adherence, schedule attainment and stability, production plan adherence, capacity utilization, changeover performance, service risk, and inventory impact.
  • Conduct root cause analysis on recurring misses and exceptions; recommend improvements to planning routines, governance, data quality, handoffs, and constraint ownership.

Â

Scope:

  • Owns supply and production plans, planning parameters, constraint visibility, and execution readiness for assigned plants, lines, categories, or products.
  • Supports cross-functional decisions affecting customer service, inventory, capacity, manufacturing efficiency, cost, waste, and working capital across short- and mid-term planning horizons.
  • Operates independently within E2E Planning governance, standardized processes, decision rights, and escalation paths.

Basic & Preferred Qualifications

  Â

  • Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Operations Management, Business, Engineering, Manufacturing, Logistics, or a related field required. Prior experience may also be considered.

  • 5–8 years of experience in supply planning, production planning, master production scheduling, materials planning, manufacturing operations, or inventory planning.
  • Strong understanding of supply planning, production scheduling, capacity planning, inventory management, constraint management, production sequencing, changeovers, and manufacturing operations.
  • Experience using ERP and advanced planning systems such as SAP ECC, SAP IBP, Kinaxis Maestro, Oracle, Blue Yonder, o9, or equivalent.
  • Experience with Power BI, Tableau, Excel, SQL, or other analytical tools preferred.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to model scenarios, identify root causes, validate constraints, and recommend practical actions.
  • Ability to influence cross-functional stakeholders and communicate supply risks, tradeoffs, business implications, and recommendations clearly.
  • Strong business acumen with understanding of customer service, inventory, cost, capacity utilization, manufacturing efficiency, waste, and working-capital tradeoffs.
  • Demonstrated digital fluency, change agility, data stewardship, planning parameter discipline, and a trust-but-verify mindset toward system-generated plans and recommendations.
