Supply Chain Planning Centre of Excellence

Temporary role until June 2027

Global Scheduling Process Owner, Supply Chain Planning Centre of Excellence

Planning & Digital Excellence

This role will be central to both the Supply Chain Planning Centre of Excellence (CoE) & Project Hermes. The CoE is strengthening planning capabilities across Haleon through globally consistent processes, advanced planning technologies and measurable performance improvement. Project Hermes is our global planning transformation programme, connecting process design, technology delivery and manufacturing execution through common planning platforms and standard ways of working.

The Global Production Scheduling BPE (Business Process Expert) will be a senior subject matter expert role within this transformation. The role has direct influence on how Haleon designs, deploys and sustains production scheduling capabilities across its global manufacturing network. This role requires deep practical expertise in production scheduling, including finite capacity planning, sequencing, changeover optimisation, campaign design, schedule stability and manufacturing execution.

The successful candidate will be recognised as a subject matter expert, capable of influencing decisions from the manufacturing floor to senior leadership and challenging process, system and operational design decisions where required.

• Supporting production scheduling process design based on daily data analysis and KPI dashboards, covering line loading, sequencing and changeover optimisation, campaign and wheel structures, and short horizon rescheduling.
• Ensuring adherence to scheduling principles, guidelines and process, including the frozen and firm horizon definition, the rules for breaking the frozen period and the standard escalation when the schedule cannot absorb a change.
• Defining the handover standard from master production scheduling into detailed scheduling, and from detailed scheduling into shop floor execution, so that each handover has a defined content, timing and acceptance test.
• Defining the standard for schedule adherence measurement, deviation coding and the daily loss review that follows from it.
• Maintaining process documentation, RACI and standard operating procedures for the scheduling discipline, and keeping them current as the solution evolves.

• Supporting the Global Scheduling Process Owner in defining Daily Management Standards (DMS) and Daily Direction Setting (DDS) for the scheduling discipline, aligned to the site daily management system.
• Defining the exception and alert framework that directs scheduler attention, including capacity conflict, material or component not available at the scheduled start, sequence violation, late order and schedule break.
• Driving DMS and DDS deployment into sites, and coaching schedulers and site leadership through the first cycles of the new cadence.

• Establishing the scheduling related scorecard and its associated KPIs, including schedule adherence, schedule stability inside the frozen horizon,…
