About us

We are an established Salt Lake City-based manufacturer specializing in high-quality nutraceutical and dietary supplement products. We operate in a regulated manufacturing environment where quality, customer service, and on-time delivery are critical. Our teams work closely across Production, Supply Chain, Operations, and Customer Account Management to efficiently meet customer demand.

About the role

We're looking for a Master Planner to take ownership of the Master Production Schedule and play a central role in keeping customer orders, production timelines, and delivery commitments on track. This is a highly visible position working across Supply Chain, Production, Customer Account Management, and Operations. You'll follow orders from receipt through completion, anticipate potential bottlenecks, adjust priorities as needs change, and make sure teams have the information they need to deliver on customer commitments.

What You'll Do

• Own and maintain the Master Production Schedule (MPS) based on customer demand, capacity, materials, and production requirements.
• Establish production and delivery dates for incoming customer orders.
• Create and release work orders through the company's ERP/MRP system.
• Update production schedules daily as orders, priorities, and operating conditions change.
• Maintain a rolling 3-month production plan and support forecasting and demand analysis.
• Track orders throughout the manufacturing process and identify potential schedule or delivery risks before they become problems.
• Monitor production stage gates and work closely with Production to keep orders moving.
• Coordinate with Supply Chain to understand material availability and its impact on production timing.
• Balance expedited and rush orders against existing production commitments and available capacity.
• Identify bottlenecks, communicate risks, and help drive solutions across departments.
• Partner closely with Production, Supply Chain, Operations, Customer Account Management, and leadership.
• Help drive exceptional on-time delivery performance and reliable customer commitments.

What We're Looking For

• 1+ years of production planning, master scheduling, supply planning, demand planning, or related manufacturing planning experience.
• Hands-on experience working with an ERP/MRP system; Oracle experience is especially valuable.
• Experience building, maintaining, or working directly with a Master Production Schedule (MPS).
• Strong understanding of manufacturing schedules, work orders, inventory/material availability, and customer demand.
• Ability to manage changing priorities, production constraints, and competing customer requirements.
• Strong Excel skills and comfort working with forecasting and planning data.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to work across Production, Supply Chain, Operations, and customer-facing teams.
• Bachelor's degree preferred, but not required for the right experience.

Especially Interesting

• Experience in nutraceuticals, dietary supplements, pharmaceuticals, food manufacturing, health & wellness products, or another regulated manufacturing environment would be a major plus.
