About the Role
We are looking for an Expert Master Production Scheduler to act as the single point of accountability for the Master Production Schedule (MPS) in a complex manufacturing environment. This role goes beyond scheduling—it is a strategic orchestration position responsible for converting demand signals into a stable, capacity‑feasible, and execution‑ready plan across manufacturing, kitting, staging, and shipment. You will play a critical role in balancing customer commitments, operational constraints, and material availability, while driving predictability, discipline, and continuous improvement across the end‑to‑end supply chain.
