About this role

The Role

Production Scheduler owns the day-to-day and week-to-week production schedule. This role turns demand and supply plans into real, executable schedules while balancing labor, materials, inventory, quality, safety, and compliance.

The Production Scheduler serves as the central decision-maker for production sequencing, acting as the connective tissue between Sales, Supply Chain Planning, Procurement, Operations, Quality, and Compliance.
