Senior Supply Planner

Asa SeniorSupplyPlannerfor PMO (Precision Machining Operation)you willberesponsible for creating sequencing and managing the machining production schedulesto meet customer service levels on-time delivery and inventory targets while optimizing utilization of constrained resources (machines tooling labor/skills fixtures). The role integrates finite capacity scheduling monthly/quarterly rough-cut capacity planning (RCCP) and exception management acrossmachinesand secondary operations. This position serves as the control point betweenfinished good supply planningprocurement manufacturing quality andengineering.This is an onsite position in Largo FL.

Responsibilities:

• Convert thefinished good supply planinto finite-capacity shop schedulesby work center/machine sequencing for minimal changeover balanced load and adherence to due dates.

• Manage daily constraints (machine downtime tooling breaks skill coverage quality holds material availability) and re-sequence work promptly to protect promise dates.

• Coordinate with Quality and Engineering on deviations rework routings and NC dispositions to minimize schedule impact.

• Track WIP movement and achieve planned start/finish dates; lead daily tier meetings with machining supervisors to align priorities

• Perform materiallaborand capacity reviews in conjunction with other factory management personnel as part of the ongoing production planning/release process. Surface and help drive the resolution of issues as they arise.

• Monitor inventory levels to ensure position to inventory goals aremaintainedand inventory turns continue to improve.

• As required compile and publishpriorities for production in relation to finished good assembly needs and back orderand ensure priorities are communicated and followed through execution.

• Ensure work orders are releasedin a timely mannerby the established factory process (discrete planned MRP workorders visual review etc.) to meet established aggregate goals.

• Participate in the establishment of factory production goals through the monthly Resource Requirements Planning (RRP) process.

• Routinely review lot sizes kanbansmin/maxetc. to ensure the sizing is reasonable based on current production volumes and planning methodologies.

• Review and implement routine engineering change orders.

• Support maintenance ofaccuratestandard times routings and calendars with Industrial Engineering to reflect reality (setup run preventive maintenance holidays).

• Work on other special projects as assigned.

• Collaborate with Buyers/Planners oncritical material constraints(bar stock castings/forgings inserts coolant specialty alloys) to align planned order release with lead times.

• Coordinate with Outside Processing (OP) providers (anodize heat treat coatings) to synchronize schedules and transit times.

• Own scheduling data integrity in ERP/MES: lead-time batch sizes calendars queue times and constraints.

• Use finite scheduling tools (ERP APS module or third-party) and visual management (Gantt chartsheijunkaboards) for transparency.

• Analyze plan vs. actuals (start/finish adherence cycle times changeover durations) and drive CI actions (SMED bottleneck exploitation alternate routings).

• Create what-if scenarios forexpedites machine downtime or demand surges; propose trade-offs (service vs. efficiency vs. inventory).

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelors degree

• 2 years in production scheduling or planning.

• 2 years experiencewithin a machining or discrete manufacturing environment (CNC milling/turning multi-axis grinding CMM/inspection).

Other attributes:

• Hands-on experience with ERP/MRP (e.g. SAP Oracle Epicor Infor JD Edwards Microsoft Dynamics) and finite-capacity scheduling/APS modulesispreferred.

• Strong understanding of routing & BOM structures setup/run standards and work center calendars.

• Proficiencyin capacity analysis (RCCP) constraint management (TOC/DBR) and lead-time compression techniques.

• Demonstrated ability to manage conflicting priorities and communicate trade-offs across Operations Sales and Supply Chain.

• APICS/ASCM certifications (CPIM CSCP) or equivalentis preferred.

• Competence with Excel/Power BI or similar analytics tools for schedule visualization and KPI reporting.
