  • Conduct routine safety checks and assist in implementing safety improvements.


Organizational & Flow Control Skills:

  • Help develop and maintain organized workflows and processes that enhance productivity and reduce bottlenecks. This involves working with various teams to streamline operations.
  • Utilize software tools to track production metrics and assist in reporting on performance.


Production Scheduling:

  • Assist in creating and managing production schedules to meet customer demands and ensure timely delivery of products. This includes coordinating with different departments to align resources effectively.
  • Monitor production progress and make adjustments to schedules as needed to accommodate unforeseen changes.


Shipping & Receiving Scheduling:

  • Coordinate shipping and receiving activities to ensure timely and accurate delivery of materials and finished products. This involves working closely with logistics partners and internal teams.
  • Maintain accurate records of shipments and receipts to support inventory management.


Inside Sales Support:

  • Engage in inside sales activities, including communicating with customers, responding to inquiries, and providing product information. This role may involve occasional travel to meet clients and suppliers.
  • Collaborate with the sales team to support customer engagement and enhance overall sales strategies.


Qualifications:

  • High school diploma or equivalent; further education in a relevant field (e.g., manufacturing, business management) is a plus.
  • Basic mechanical and safety knowledge; familiarity with industrial equipment is advantageous.
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail, with the ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to work effectively with team members and external partners.
  • Ability to work both on-site and remotely, demonstrating flexibility and adaptability in a dynamic environment.
