We produce high-quality and consistent products, which include yogurt (Dahi or Indian, Greek and traditional), smoothies/yogurt drinks, sour cream, and dips from single serve options to food service sides. We are currently seeking a skilled Supply Planner to join our team and contribute to the ongoing success of our facility in Winchester, Virginia

  • Coordinate with procurement to ensure timely replenishment of key materials and components.

  • Utilize ERP/MRP systems (e.g., Sage) to manage material requirements and synchronize supply and production activities.

  • Conduct daily and weekly production planning meetings to communicate priorities, capacity constraints, and changes in demand.

  • Collaborate with Operations and Quality to ensure production plans align with equipment availability, batch sequencing, and quality standards.

  • Track and analyze key performance indicators (KPIs) such as inventory accuracy, production adherence, and forecast accuracy.

  • Identify and implement process improvements to enhance planning accuracy, reduce waste, and increase production efficiency.

  • Maintain accurate records of production, materials, and inventory transactions in compliance with FDA, USDA, HACCP, SQF, and GMP standards.

  • Support continuous improvement and cross-functional collaboration with warehouse, logistics, and customer service teams.

Qualifications & Experience:

  • Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, Industrial Engineering, or a related field preferred.

  • Minimum of 5+ years of experience in production planning, materials management, or inventory control within a food manufacturing or CPG environment.

  • APICS/ASCM CPIM or CSCP certifications are preferred but not required

  • Proficiency with ERP/MRP systems and MS Office applications (Excel, Outlook, Word, PowerPoint).

  • Strong understanding of Bills of Materials (BOMs), lead times, and capacity constraints.

  • Knowledge of inventory management best practices (FIFO, safety stock, cycle counting).

  • Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills, with a high attention to detail.

  • Ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams and thrive in a fast-paced, changing environment.

  • Familiarity with FDA, USDA, HACCP, SQF, and GMP requirements in food production environments.

We offer a competitive salary and benefits package. This role has a pay range of $65,000 - $80,000 annually. The pay range provided is an estimated base pay range for this role. Exact compensation may vary based on skills, experience, education, and location.
