Key Responsibilities

1. Work Center Dispatching & Sequencing.

Execute daily / shift-based dispatching of work orders to each work center. Adjust sequences in real-time based on machine availability, material shortages, and urgent customer orders.

2. Internal Material Movement Coordination

Coordinate with warehouse and logistics teams to move finished goods from production lines to shipping staging areas. Ensure timely handover to outbound logistics.

3. Priority Order Execution Apply priority rules (e.g., FIFO, ASAP, customer promise dates) to re-sequence jobs dynamically throughout the shift. Communicate changes immediately to production teams.

Provide field feedback to master planners on schedule feasibility, actual run times, and constraint bottlenecks. Assist in refining daily master schedule slices for execution purposes.

 5, WIP Monitoring &  Reduction.

Conduct daily walk-throughs of work-in-process inventory. Identify and flag aged / stalled WIP for immediate disposition. Physically coordinate rework, scrap, or transfer actions to keep floor WIP at target levels.
