About the Role
Apex is looking for a Master Scheduler to own the company's overall schedule. This role builds and maintains the integrated master schedule that ties together product design, development, and program execution, and keeps leadership and every department tracking to plan. You will work across engineering, supply chain, production, program management, and leadership to build accurate schedules, surface risks early, and show clearly where the company is on plan and where it is not. This is a senior, cross-company role. It fits someone who can hold the big picture across many programs while staying close enough to the work to build a credible, bottoms-up schedule.
Responsibilities
- Own the integrated master schedule by building and maintaining the company-wide schedule that connects product design, development, and program execution across all programs.
- Work with engineering to build design and development schedules, including major milestones, dependencies, and gates.
- Create and manage detailed program execution schedules that drive on-time delivery and good use of resources.
- Monitor progress across the company and its departments against the master schedule and show clearly where teams are on plan and where they are falling behind.
- Learn the engineering development and production processes used to build Apex products and break down schedule tasks to reflect that technical scope.
- Work with engineering, supply chain, production, and program management to keep schedules aligned and realistic.
- Establish and maintain consistent scheduling processes, cadence, and standards so updates stay timely and schedules stay trustworthy across the company.
- Identify risks to the schedule, work with teams on mitigation and contingency plans, and flag critical path issues early.
- Address competing priorities and resource conflicts across programs to keep work moving.
- Communicate schedule changes to the right stakeholders and make sure adjustments carry through the organization.
- Provide regular updates to leadership on schedule health, progress, and major issues, including a clear read on whether the company is tracking to plan.
