Job Description

The Planner II supports the Outfitting Production Control team in detailed planning, sequencing, and scheduling activities required to achieve zone, compartment, or system completion.

  • Review engineering drawings, system diagrams, test pack drawings, and 3D models to extract scope, set logical sequence, and align work orders

  • Track physical and transactional progress for assigned scope and update planning tools and trackers to maintain accurate schedule and completion forecasts.
  • Monitors material availability and action material readiness onboard within the agreed time-fences.
  • Produce Plan of the Week (POW) and look-ahead schedules that support execution teams in managing daily and weekly work priorities.
  • Support the development and maintenance of critical micro-plans (e.g., machinery uptakes, powertrain sequences, system completion networks) to ensure alignment with broader production schedules.
  • Perform additional duties as required

  • Experience in using Oracle MRP & ERP is required.
  • Certified Advanced Supply Chain Professional (CASP) is highly preferred.
  • Experience supporting an Oracle implementation is highly desirable.
  • Strong experience with inventory planning, supply chain processes, material flow, BOM structures, and manufacturing engineering principles.
  • Ability to read, interpret, and extract scope from engineering drawings and 3D models.
  • Strong MS Excel proficiency to gather and manipulate data, as needed
  • Working knowledge of planning systems such as Primavera or MS Project.
  • Strong analytical, prioritization, and problem-solving skills with the ability to manage multiple tasks in a dynamic environment.
