Production Planner

Be the brain behind the build.

If you love seeing the full picture—demand coming in, production humming, customers happy—this role puts you right in the driver’s seat. As a Production Supply Planner , you’ll own the rhythm of production for a key business unit, turning forecasts into executable plans and chaos into clean schedules.

This is a hands-on, high-visibility role where your decisions directly impact customer delivery, inventory health, and operational efficiency. You won’t sit in a silo—you’ll collaborate daily with Manufacturing, Procurement, Customer Service, Quality, Sales, and Supply Chain to keep products flowing and customers satisfied.

Why This Role Stands Out

• You own the master production schedule —not just maintaining it, but actively improving how the business runs

• You’re the connector between demand, materials, and capacity

• Your work directly influences customer service levels, inventory strategy, and operational efficiency

• Fast-paced, problem-solving environment where smart planning makes a visible impact

• Ideal for someone who thrives on data, collaboration, and real-world execution

What You’ll Be Doing

• Build and manage production schedules using MRP and ERP tools

• Identify material needs, shortages, and supply risks before they become problems

• Partner with Manufacturing to balance capacity, efficiency, and demand

• Coordinate daily, weekly, and long-term planning across cross-functional teams

• Work closely with Procurement, subcontractors, and external partners to ensure materials are ready when needed

• Respond to demand changes, prioritize production, and minimize out-of-stocks

• Support product launches, promotions, and transitions with proactive planning

• Track KPIs, analyze performance vs. plan, and recommend corrective actions

• Release, manage, and close production orders while maintaining accurate planning parameters

What Success Looks Like

• Customers get what they need, when they need it

• Production runs smoothly within capacity and material constraints

• Inventory is balanced—not bloated, not bare

• Cross-functional teams trust your numbers and your judgment

What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Business, Mathematics, or related field (or equivalent experience)

• 3+ years of experience in a CPG manufacturing environment

• Strong hands-on experience with MRP, ERP systems, and BOMs

• Advanced Excel skills—you’re comfortable living in data

• Analytical, detail-oriented, and highly organized

• Confident communicator who works well across teams

• Someone who enjoys solving problems before they hit the shop floor

What’s In It for You

• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage

• Free life and disability insurance

• 401(k) with company match and annual discretionary contribution

• Paid vacation, holidays, and sick time

• Paid parental leave

• Education assistance for degrees and certifications

• Employee discounts, wellness perks, and on-demand pay

• Cash referral bonuses

• Access to thousands of free professional development courses
