Lead regular reviews and kaizen events to identify gaps and drive standardization
Kitting, Staging, and Inventory Accuracy
Work with warehouse and production staff to improve part staging and kitting processes in support of work center schedules
Ensure accurate ERP transactions, drive cycle count integrity, and support real-time inventory visibility
Continuous Improvement and Lean Culture
Serve as a champion for lean transformation efforts related to materials flow and planning
Develop and standardize visual management tools to support tiered daily management
Training and Change Management
Train key personnel on lean material systems and practices
Document standard work and facilitate knowledge transfer across shifts and departments
Qualifications:
Bachelor's degree in Industrial Engineering, Supply Chain, Operations Management, or a relevant degree program
1 to 4 years of experience in a manufacturing environment with exposure to materials management, operations planning, or production support; internships or co-op experience will be considered
Foundational understanding of lean principles such as 5S, value stream mapping, Kanban, and PFEP
Experience working with ERP systems (Infor preferred) and material tracking solutions
Effective communication and project management skills with an ability to collaborate across multiple departments
Demonstrated initiative and drive to improve processes, with a willingness to learn and grow into a larger leadership role
Compensation actually offered for this role will take into account internal equity and also may vary depending on the candidate’s geographic region, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience among other factors. A bonus and/or long-term incentive units may be provided as part of the compensation package, in addition to the full range of medical, financial, and/or other benefits, dependent on the level and position offered.
