Mission
Do you instinctively think a few steps ahead? Do you enjoy analyzing, forecasting, and finding the best balance between customer needs and operational realities?

As a production planner, you’ll be at the heart of our operational decisions. Your role: to translate demand and our business priorities into a realistic, efficient, and motivating production plan for the teams.

In a rapidly growing manufacturing environment where priorities shift quickly, you’ll need to anticipate needs and constraints, adjust the plan as circumstances change, and rally the various stakeholders around our priorities. Your judgment, agility, and ability to see the big picture will have a direct impact on our ability to deliver to our customers and support our growth.

In this position, you will have the opportunity to :

Develop and maintain the production plan for finished and semi-finished products by balancing customer needs, equipment capacity, workforce availability, materials, and inventory levels
Anticipate production needs and constraints to establish planning strategies that optimize capacity, smooth out production, and provide clear visibility to the various teams
Establish and adjust production priorities in collaboration with customer service and operations to meet our customer commitments and respond effectively to changes
Plan operations while taking into account capacity constraints, shared peripheral equipment, setup times, critical resources, and scheduled maintenance shutdowns
Work closely with procurement, production, and engineering to incorporate their realities and constraints into the production plan, particularly for products under development
Monitor the plan’s progress daily, analyze variances, and promptly communicate potential impacts on production schedules and delivery times while proposing alternative scenarios
Ensure the reliability of data and planning parameters in the manufacturing system,



analyze MRP messages, and liaise with stakeholders as needed
Analyze performance metrics, explain variances, and help implement corrective actions and improvements to optimize planning and operational performance
