Role Summary
This role manages PO health, supplier performance, ERP/MRP planning signals, production planning support, shop floor audits, and paper/document control. Success is measured by material availability, schedule adherence, on-time shipment, inventory accuracy, and audit-ready documentation. Be the company face for the customers and drive relationships.
Key Responsibilities
  • Create, place, and manage purchase orders based on demand, lead times, and production priorities. Drive daily PO management: confirmations, expedites, de-expedites, reschedules, cancels, and supplier follow-ups.
  • Partner with production to align material readiness to build schedules; adjust priorities based on shortages and hot orders.
  • Support production planning through daily alignment meetings, shortage triage, and prioritized action lists. Validate work order readiness (materials, tooling/consumables availability, outside processing status).
  • Coordinate the sequence of work based on customer commitments and material constraints. Track and communicate schedule changes, recovery dates, and shipment risks.
  • Coordinate daily shipments to customers: readiness checks, due-date alignment, and ship list prioritization.
  • Prepare and verify shipping documentation (packing slips, labels, certifications/CoC packages as required).
  • Work with carriers or internal logistics to schedule pickups, track shipments, and resolve delivery issues.
  • Maintain complete job packets: travelers/routers, inspection records, certs, purchase documentation, and traceability.
  • Ensure paperwork accuracy and readiness for audits and customer requirements (revision control, signatures, stamps).
  • Drive document and Quality cleanup/standardization to reduce errors, rework, and shipment holds.
  • Monitor supplier OTD/OTIF, responsiveness, and delivery reliability; drive corrective actions and recovery plans.
  • Build/maintain KPI reporting (Excel/Power BI as applicable): shortages, past-due POs, supplier OTD, inventory health, shipment performance.
  • Provide clear daily/weekly updates to leadership on constraints, recovery plans, and delivery outlook.
Required Qualifications
  • 3+ years in supply chain/procurement/material planning and/or production operations in a manufacturing environment.
  • Strong ERP/MRP knowledge and hands-on PO lifecycle management.
  • Experience coordinating shipping, documentation, and shipment readiness in a production setting.
  • Advanced Excel skills; ability to manage trackers, reconcile data, and communicate priorities.
  • Strong cross-functional communication with production, quality, engineering, and suppliers.
  • High attention to detail with strong documentation discipline (audit/traceability mindset).
Preferred Qualifications
  • Aerospace or regulated manufacturing experience (AS9100/ISO).
  • Power BI/Tableau reporting experience; SQL/data skills a plus.
  • Experience with shop floor audits, 5S/visual management, and WIP/inventory reconciliation.
  • Exposure to S&OP, demand planning, or capacity planning.
Core Skills / Competencies
  • Ownership mindset and urgency in shortage/shipping recovery
  • Analytical problem-solving and strong prioritization
  • Supplier coordination and follow-up discipline
  • Operational detail orientation (paperwork, counts, traceability)
  • Ability to work on the shop floor and resolve issues in real time
  • Continuous improvement mindset and comfort driving process change
