  • Work with factory IP’s to identify practical issues that may cause plant shutdowns in the future and relay this information back to master production scheduling for long-term planning of product promotions.
  • Utilize GLOBE tools during production scheduling and capacity planning exercises in order to determine the optimal schedule for cost and service.
  • Convert production schedule to process orders for production as required.
  • Publish weekly production schedule to plant, and review all production changes, limitations, priorities to meet customer orders and abnormal events.
  • Provide information in advance detailing swings in labor requirements within the DPS planning horizon.
  • Act as the liaison between the factory and corporate supply chain to properly determine the priorities of the business.
  • Maintain SAP APO master data, performing routine maintenance to insure system integrity.
  • Ensure all manufacturing procedures comply with government and Nestle standards for food safety and quality.
  • Engage in LEAN, End to End Value Stream continuous improvement initiatives to improve costs and efficiencies throughout our manufacturing and planning process.
Who we are looking for:
  • BS/BA degree required (preferably in an Industrial Engineering, Logistics Management, Supply Chain Management or Business Management).
  • Past experience in manufacturing environment with responsibility for Logistics or Supply Chain Management.
  • Firm understanding of manufacturing and distribution processes.
  • Experience in production scheduling, material handling, and/or supply chain management.
  • Prior experience negotiating with vendors.
  • Factory master data management
  • Understanding and following the product life cycle process
  • Excellent communication skills (strong verbal and written required).
  • Leadership and teamwork skills.
