What sets you apart:

  • Deep expertise in production planning, master scheduling, capacity planning, and material management principles.
  • Strong ERP/MRP planning knowledge with demonstrated experience managing planning parameters and data integrity.
  • Working knowledge of PFEP, Kanban, pull systems, inventory optimization, and lean material flow concepts.
  • Ability to balance long-term system improvements with short-term production requirements.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to make data-driven decisions in rapidly changing manufacturing environments.
  • Ability to influence results through collaboration and technical expertise rather than formal authority.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to work effectively across all levels of the organization.
  • Hands-on approach with a strong desire to solve problems and improve processes
