• Adjust ICE/ERS build specifications based on component availability, including allocation of used parts in close collaboration with Testing, Engineering and Design.
• Allocate used parts to ICE/ERS assemblies in line with component validation planning.
• Support resolution of component shortages (alternative specifications, rework of previous-spec components, verification of quarantined stock, assessment of used-part availability, etc.)
• Create detailed work orders within the ERP system for the kitting and build of each ICE/ERS assembly, ensuring the agreed specification is built on time.
• Generate and communicate summaries of component availability risks to the Operations team.
• Monitor and report the over consumption of components versus forecast.
• Ensure spare part availability for Grand Prix events in line with the agreed allocation and reported usage.
• Collaborate closely with Logistics to ensure timely shipment of parts for Grand Prix events.

• Strong understanding of engine or high voltage components and systems, including specifications, mileage limits, and technical constraints.
• Experience with Supply Chain Management including monitoring component usage, managing allocations, anticipating shortages, and supporting replenishment decisions.
• Proficient in ERP system usage, including work order creation and leveraging MRP tools to plan, control, and optimize material availability.
• Excellent communication skills, including the ability to manage interfaces, resolve conflicts, and assertively represent operational objectives.
