Supply Chain Planner

Are you a supply chain guru with hands-on production planning experience? Come join our team and help us drive smarter planning, stronger execution, and supply chain excellence!

The Production Planner/Supply Chain Planner serves as the planning hub between Demand Planning, Procurement, and Operations by translating approved forecasts into an executable Master Production Schedule and forward-looking material requirements. This role is accountable for producing accurate, timely, and decision-ready planning outputs that provide the Director of Planning with visibility into plan quality, risks, and tradeoffs; enable procurement to consolidate and prioritize purchasing across states;

and support operations with a feasible, capacity-aligned production plan. While this role influences decisions through data, analysis, and scenario planning, it does not execute purchasing transactions.

• Own the development, maintenance, and communication of the Master Production Schedule (MPS), ensuring alignment with approved demand forecasts and operational constraints.
• Translate demand plans into a feasible production plan and provide clear, role‑specific planning outputs to the Director of Planning, VP Supply Chain & Operations, and Facility Director.
• Partner with the VP Supply Chain & Operations, and Facility Director to review the MPS, highlight risks to execution, and support successful adherence to the plan.
• Continuously evaluate production capacity, labor availability, and sequencing constraints, escalating issues and recommendations to the Director of Planning and the VP Supply Chain & Operations.
• Support cross-functional planning cadence (e.g., S&OP, MPS reviews) by preparing scenarios, assumptions, and tradeoff analysis.
• Convert the approved MPS into raw material and packaging requirements and serve those requirements to the centralized procurement team for ordering and consolidation across states.
• Provide procurement with forward‑looking visibility into material demand, risks, and priority changes to enable proactive sourcing decisions.
• Maintain and periodically review planning parameters (lead times, safety stock targets, reorder triggers) and present recommendations to the Director of Planning for approval.
• Support ERP system setup, data integrity, and continuous improvement related to material planning and planning outputs.
• Identify material availability risks and clearly communicate timing, impact, and options to planning, procurement, and operations.

• Develop inventory planning views that support decision‑making for the Director of Planning, procurement, and operations, including exposure, aging, and working capital impacts.
• Monitor inventory health and serve actionable insights related to excess, expiry, slow‑moving inventory, and stockout risk.
• Assess and communicate inventory and material impacts resulting from reforecasts, schedule changes, cancellations, and rework.
• Proactively identify supply, capacity, and labor risks and surface them with recommended mitigations to planning and operations leadership.
• Prepare and maintain planning reports and dashboards that provide visibility into plan quality, risks, and tradeoffs.
• Serve tailored planning outputs to procurement (material requirements, timing, priorities) and operations (production volumes, sequencing assumptions, capacity risks).
• Track and report on key planning metrics including inventory levels, working capital, material availability, schedule reliability, and MPS adherence.
• Support continuous improvement by analyzing planning performance and recommending process, data, or system enhancements

• Bachelor’s degree in business management, operations, plant science, or a related field – Required
• Minimum 5 years of progressive leadership experience in cannabis or CPG production, manufacturing, or a regulated industry, with at least 3 years in a senior supervisory or managerial role – Required
