Logistics Coordinator

About the role

Project North PES is Pangeo's new aluminum die casting and machining plant in Vaughan, Ontario. As Planner, you turn customer demand, internal capacity, and inventory status into executable production plans, and you keep material flowing to meet delivery without piling up stock.

This is a coordination-heavy role at the hub of the plant's material and production flow. You'll set and adjust the schedule, issue internal and supplier orders, handle production exceptions with lean scheduling, and report clearly on plan attainment and delivery. It suits someone organized and data-minded who coordinates well under time pressure.

Responsibilities

Capacity evaluation and production planning

• Regularly evaluate internal capacity and inventory, and combine them with customer order demand to schedule, adjust, and issue internal production plans that meet customer delivery and internal inventory targets.
• Develop production plans and production orders and coordinate execution with the production team.
• Conduct capacity/load analysis and adjust production plans accordingly.
• Apply lean scheduling to optimize floor sequencing and minimize waste.

Internal coordination and scheduling

• Issue internal production instructions and coordinate scheduling and handoffs across processes and work cells.
• Handle production exceptions promptly to keep the plan on track.
• Organize and lead production coordination meetings and weekly review meetings.

Supplier material ordering and tracking

• Issue bulk material purchase orders to suppliers based on delivery terms and production requirements, and track and follow up on order status.
• Maintain material availability for volume production without excess inventory accumulation.

Data analysis and reporting

• Compile and analyze plan-attainment, delivery, and inventory data on a timely basis, and report the statistics.
• Track anomalies and corrective actions through to resolution.
• Support continuous improvement with data-driven recommendations on scheduling efficiency.

What we're looking for

• Planning discipline. You balance demand, capacity, and inventory into a workable schedule.
• Coordination. You keep processes and suppliers aligned and handoffs clean.
• Responsiveness. You catch and resolve exceptions before they hit delivery.
• Data sense. You turn plan and delivery data into clear reporting and action.
• Detail and improvement mindset. You keep things accurate and always look to tighten the flow.

Qualifications

• 1+ years of experience in production planning or logistics, ideally in a manufacturing environment.
• Diploma or degree in Mechanical/Mechatronics Engineering, Logistics, Supply Chain, or a related field.
• Experience with a multinational or foreign-invested manufacturer an asset.
