  • Excellent presentation skills (verbal & written) and ability to communicate effectively to all levels of the organization.

    Job Duties and Responsibilities:

  • Develop and maintain the Shop Floor Schedule (SFS)

  • Drive high accuracy into the SFS for a rolling 4-week time period, to ensure plant capacity is effectively utilized to meet aggressive business growth goals.

  • Develop and maintain (in IFS) a clear view of plant demand/loading by Work Center (based on current scheduled SO loading and hours in routings).

  • Monitor workflow and plant production areas to ensure on time delivery while reducing downtime, changeovers and hours worked.

  • Setup and maintain a strong communication system with Work Center leads and Manufacturing Engineering to ensure hours in routings accurately reflect the time needed to do the work. Identify areas where estimates and actual hours differ, and coordinate with Manufacturing Engineering to update templates to ensure future accuracy.
