Supply Planner Jobs in Florida

INTRODUCTION

This role is fully onsite in Largo, FL, requiring 5 days per week on site. Please note that relocation assistance is not offered.

As a Senior Supply Planner for PMO (Precision Machining Operation), you will be responsible for creating, sequencing, and managing the machining production schedules to meet customer service levels, on-time delivery, and inventory targets while optimizing utilization of constrained resources (machines, tooling, labor/skills, fixtures). The role integrates finite capacity scheduling, monthly/quarterly rough-cut capacity planning (RCCP), and exception management across machines and secondary operations. This position serves as the control point between finished good supply planning, procurement, manufacturing, quality, and engineering.

Responsibilities:

• Convert the finished good supply plan into finite-capacity shop schedules by work center/machine, sequencing for minimal changeover, balanced load, and adherence to due dates.

• Manage daily constraints (machine downtime, tooling breaks, skill coverage, quality holds, material availability) and re-sequence work promptly to protect promise dates.

• Coordinate with Quality and Engineering on deviations, rework routings, and NC dispositions to minimize schedule impact.

• Track WIP movement and achieve planned start/finish dates; lead daily tier meetings with machining supervisors to align priorities.

• Perform material, labor and capacity reviews in conjunction with other factory management personnel as part of the ongoing production planning/release process. Surface and help drive the resolution of issues as they arise.

• Monitor inventory levels to ensure position to inventory goals are maintained and inventory turns continue to improve.

• As required, compile and publish priorities for production in relation to finished good assembly needs and back order and ensure priorities are communicated and followed through execution.

• Ensure work orders are released in a timely manner by the established factory process (discrete planned MRP workorders, visual review, etc.) to meet established aggregate goals.

• Participate in the establishment of factory production goals through the monthly Resource Requirements Planning (RRP) process.

• Routinely review lot sizes, kanban’s, min/max, etc. to ensure the sizing is reasonable based on current production volumes and planning methodologies.

• Review and implement routine engineering change orders.

• Support maintenance of accurate standard times, routings, and calendars with Industrial Engineering to reflect reality (setup, run, preventive maintenance, holidays).

• Work on other special projects as assigned.

• Collaborate with Buyers/Planners on critical material constraints (bar stock, castings/forgings, inserts, coolant, specialty alloys) to align planned order release with lead times.

• Coordinate with Outside Processing (OP) providers (anodize, heat treat, coatings) to synchronize schedules and transit times.

• Own scheduling data integrity in ERP/MES: lead-time, batch sizes, calendars, queue times, and constraints.

• Use finite scheduling tools (ERP APS module or third-party) and visual management (Gantt charts, heijunka boards) for transparency.

• Analyze plan vs. actuals (start/finish adherence, cycle times, changeover durations) and drive CI actions (SMED, bottleneck exploitation, alternate routings).

• Create what-if scenarios for expedites, machine downtime, or demand surges; propose trade-offs (service vs. efficiency vs. inventory).

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree

• 2+ years in production scheduling or planning.

• 2+ years experience within a machining or discrete manufacturing environment (CNC milling/turning, multi-axis, grinding, CMM/inspection).

Other attributes:

• Hands-on experience with ERP/MRP (e.g., SAP, Oracle, Epicor, Infor, JD Edwards, Microsoft Dynamics) and finite-capacity scheduling/APS modules is preferred.

• Strong understanding of routing & BOM structures, setup/run standards, and work center calendars.

• Proficiency in capacity analysis (RCCP), constraint management (TOC/DBR), and lead-time compression techniques.

• Demonstrated ability to manage conflicting priorities and communicate trade-offs across Operations, Sales, and Supply Chain.

• APICS/ASCM certifications (CPIM, CSCP) or equivalent is preferred.

• Competence with Excel/Power BI or similar analytics tools for schedule visualization and KPI reporting.
