Production Planning Manager — Packaging

Sedalia, USA
Full-time
Senior Level
Onsite
Discovered 1 months ago
Full Job Posting
- Own the package build schedule across both sites: sequence assembly against engine delivery dates, long-lead major components, and project milestones; publish a single priority the floor can execute — via disciplined manual scheduling today and ERP-based Master Planning (MRP) after go-live, keeping system dates honest against project commitments.
- Optimize cross-site capacity: document assembly bay occupancy, crane and test constraints, and realistic build durations; balance load between Sedalia and Houston, protect constraint resources, and drive schedule adherence as the function’s core metric.
- Lead master data readiness and integrity for the packaging scope: drive cleansing of item masters, bill-of-material structures, and routings — including engineer-to-order variant management — and after go-live, enforce accurate, on-time recording of material issues, completions, and project charges so work-in-process, cost, and status reflect reality.
- Integrate material coordination across two campuses: establish staging, kitting, and point-of-use delivery disciplines for large components; replace informal expediting with a defined shortage escalation process.
- Serve as a functional lead through the ERP implementation for the packaging scope: execute user acceptance testing on production and project-linked transactions against real package scenarios, validate cross-site workflows before cutover, and own planned-order, exception, and release discipline in the system thereafter.
- Connect package planning to the enterprise: provide accurate supply signals to master scheduling and sales & operations planning; align with engine production planning so package and engine schedules move as one.
- Partner with continuous improvement leadership on flow and shortage-reduction improvement events; standardize planning standard work across the packaging function.
- Develop the team: build planner and coordinator capability across sites, establish clear role standards, and grow bench depth for the production ramp.
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Operations Management, Industrial Engineering, Supply Chain, or a related field — or equivalent progressive experience.
- Experience: 5+ years in production control, planning, or project-based manufacturing scheduling, with direct people-leadership experience, including remote or cross-site team management.
- Industry expertise: Experience planning large, long-cycle assemblies integrating engines or major components — capital equipment, energy-sector packaging, or skid fabrication.
- Systems: Hands-on ERP experience (implementation, migration, or power-user depth); strong Excel and capacity-modeling capability; comfort with milestone-driven scheduling and constraint management.
- Execution: Demonstrated ability to run disciplined manual scheduling across multiple sites and lead a team through digital transition.
- Travel Required: Willingness to travel up to 40%.
- US work authorization is a precondition of employment. The company will not consider candidates who require sponsorship for a work authorized visa.
- Successful candidates will need to satisfactorily complete pre-employment drug screen and background check.
- Industry leadership: Gas turbine package, generator set, or comparable complex-assembly experience.
- Systems: Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations; project-linked manufacturing with project accounting integration.
- Certifications: APICS/ASCM certification (CPIM or CSCP).
- Business models: Make-to-order, engineer-to-order, or configure-to-order environments.
- Methods: Familiarity with Lean manufacturing and daily management systems.
- Servant leadership across two campuses
- Milestone discipline under project pressure — keeps engineer-to-order commitments honest against engine and supply reality.
- Fluency in capacity modeling, constraint management, and long-lead material mechanics for large assemblies.
- Cross-functional influence with program management, supply chain, engineering, and shipping/logistics.
- Change leadership through an ERP transition, including project-linked manufacturing discipline.
- Comfort building in ambiguity
