The posting

The Planning Lead / Manager plays a critical role in orchestrating end-to-end master scheduling, inventory optimization, and sales and operations planning (S&OP) for high-complexity manufacturing operations. Reporting directly to the Head of Supply Chain, this role leads a dedicated team to align dynamic sales forecasts with material requirements planning (MRP) and shop-floor execution.

This position is ideal for an agile, data-driven planning professional accustomed to high-SKU environments, fluctuating supplier lead times, and rapid production adjustments.

Key Responsibilities

  • Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) Governance: Facilitate and manage the full monthly S&OP cycle, including data consolidation, pre-S&OP reviews, and cross-functional alignment sessions. Continuously refine planning frameworks and tools to reflect industry best practices and support expanding operational scale.
  • Material Requirements Planning (MRP) & Stock Optimization: Architect material plans and forecasting models to maintain optimal buffer inventory while mitigating excess stock risks. Partner closely with Procurement to monitor vendor delivery schedules, proactively resolve component bottlenecks, and safeguard production timelines. Establish precise material projection models to evaluate component availability against rolling demand forecasts.
  • Production Scheduling & Execution: Design, execute, and adapt master production schedules (MPS) to maximize throughput and guarantee on-time order fulfillment. Collaborate daily with manufacturing leadership to adjust line allocations and capacity planning based on real-time material feeds and shift availability. Monitor key operational metrics (schedule adherence, lead-time variance, line balance) to drive continuous throughput improvements.
  • Cross-Functional Alignment & Performance Reporting: Serve as the central communication point between Engineering, Sourcing, Operations, and Sales to maintain unified operational targets. Generate high-visibility executive reports and dashboards covering schedule execution, inventory health, and operational risk mitigation.

Position & Operational Context

  • Reporting Line: Reports directly to the Head of Supply Chain
  • Direct Reports: Manages a team of 2–3 Executives
  • Work Location: Factory-based (Vietnam)
  • Working Schedule: Monday to Saturday | 8:00 AM – 6:00 PM
  • Industry Background: Open to candidates from any fast-paced discrete or assembly manufacturing background (e.g., Electronics, Industrial Machinery, High-Tech Hardware, or Consumer Durables).

Key Role Challenges

  • High-SKU & Complex Bill of Materials (BOM): Oversees complex BOM structures across 300–400+ active SKUs, requiring precise component-level planning and tracking.
  • Dynamic & High-Volatility Operating Environment: Manages planning agility in a fast-changing environment where schedules frequently adapt to sudden sales demand shifts, global lead-time variances, component supply disruptions, and labor capacity limits.

Candidate Qualifications

  • Education: Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Logistics, Industrial Engineering, Operations, or a related technical discipline.
  • Professional Experience: Proven track record in a Planning Lead within a modern manufacturing setup. Deep practical knowledge of MRP/ERP systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, NetSuite) and advanced Excel/planning tools.
  • Core Competencies: Demonstrated expertise in managing end-to-end S&OP cycles and complex BOM structures. Strong analytical acuity with a proven ability to solve sudden supply chain bottlenecks and capacity constraints.
  • Soft Skills & Communication: Strong leadership capability to guide and mentor junior planners. Excellent cross-functional coordination skills with fluency in both Vietnamese and English to interface with executive leadership and cross-departmental teams.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
