• Track schedule attainment, inventory performance, and other key metrics to support operational decision-making.
• Participate in production planning meetings and collaborate across Operations, Purchasing, Quality, Engineering, and Customer Service.
• Identify opportunities to improve scheduling processes, inventory management, and overall operational efficiency.

• Experience in production scheduling, planning, supply chain, inventory control, or manufacturing operations.
• Working knowledge of ERP/MRP systems and inventory management processes.
• Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Excel and production planning tools.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills with cross-functional teams.
