Key Responsibilities:
- Integrate with the Sales, Inventory and Operational Process (SIOP) to lead, create and buy-off a strategic Master Production Schedule (MPS) for their value-stream portfolio of parts in support of customer demand

- Support short-term load and capacity resource planning for the value stream (accounting for both labour and machine requirements), identifying risks for scheduling of the production plan
- Work closely with the SIOP team to understand any new demand changes outside of the SIOP process, while working to maintain MPS signal stability

- Set appropriate value-stream delivery priorities as required, providing clear line of sight to customer requirements
- Collaborate with the supply-chain for material availability to meet requirements of the plan and manage material supply exceptions accordingly
- Support ERP reviews and drive related actions with timely escalation as required
- Support planning of inventory across the value-stream and manage plan adherence, ensuring optimal and affordable inventory levels are maintained against the plan, latest estimates and PFEP's (Plan for Every Part)
- Manage the cycle count process activities and drive adherence to business targets for both quantity and value counts
- Support cell continuous improvement activities for planning, control, inventory, delivery, lead-times and cell designed control systems
- Support and contribute to the ACE and Standard Factory journey for the value-stream to achieve the best-in-class status
