The Production Planner is responsible for developing, coordinating, and executing detailed production documentation, as BOM, Dockets, YF, M-specs and schedule production to meet customer demand in a flexible packaging manufacturing environment.

Release and manage production work orders, ensuring accuracy in BOMs, routings, and material availability.

Coordinate with Purchasing to ensure timely availability of films, inks, adhesives, cylinders/plates, and other raw materials.
Monitor raw material and finished goods inventory levels, adjusting plans as needed to avoid shortages or overproduction.
Support cycle counts and contribute to root‑cause analysis for inventory variances.

Participate in daily production meetings and provide updates on schedule adherence, bottlenecks, and customer priorities.
Escalate potential delays and propose alternative solutions.

Data Management & Reporting

Maintain accurate data within the related software system.
Track key planning metrics such as OTIF, schedule adherence, WIP levels, and capacity utilization.
Generate daily and weekly planning reports and KPIs.

Continuous Improvement

Identify opportunities to improve planning accuracy, machine efficiency, and material usage.
Support lean manufacturing initiatives, including SMED, 5S, and waste reduction projects.
Contribute to root-cause investigations for schedule misses or production issues.

Qualifications

2-5 years of production planning or scheduling experience in manufacturing
Knowledge of lean manufacturing, demand planning, and supply chain optimization
Experience in flexible packaging preferred (extrusion, printing, lamination, slitting, converting) is an asset
