Materials Manager
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: EEO/AA etc. Also remove "Performing other duties as assigned", "The above statements are intended only to describe the general nature of the job..." maybe that's boilerplate? It's generic but still part of description; but it's not substantive? It says "intended only to describe the general nature of the job and should not be construed as an all-inclusive list of position responsibilities." That's boilerplate; we can drop it. Also remove "Nearest Major Market: Statesboro Job Segment: Logistics, Supply Chain Manager, Supply Chain, Demand Planner, Material Planner, Operations, Manufacturing" maybe metadata; we can drop or fold into short p. Probably drop.
We need to keep travel required 5-10% maybe as a note under responsibilities? Could be a separate bullet under responsibilities? It's not a duty but a condition. Could be placed in a
after responsibilities.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. Not include Job ID.
We need to include sections: About the role (maybe a brief summary), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe required qualifications), Qualifications (maybe preferred qualifications), Skills (maybe combine required/preferred skills). But we must only include sections when posting has real specific content.
Let's parse content:
- Intro: "As the Manager of Materials your goal is to manage the flow of materials into, through, and out of the facility. You will collaborate with managers and teams throughout the facility to determine inventory and purchasing needs as they relate to production demand and forecasts and mitigate discrepancies and disruptions as they arise." That's about the role.
- Then bullet list of duties (starting with "You Will Do This By Leading a team..." etc). That's responsibilities.
- Then "Performing a full range of managerial responsibilities which may include but not be limited to: interviewing, hiring, coaching and developing employees; planning, assigning and directing work; EEO/AA; performance management; department budget" - that's also responsibilities.
- Then "Performing other duties as assigned" - generic, maybe drop.
- Then "The above statements are intended only to describe the general nature of the job..." drop.
- Then "You Are The Kind Of Person Who Has Excellent organization and record-keeping skills. A Keen eye for discrepancies and disruptions. A problem-solver." That's maybe personal attributes/skills.
- Then "Required Qualifications Bachelor’s Degree in Supply Chain Management or a related field. Sseven years of experience in supply chain management. Thorough knowledge of manufacturing, distribution, inventory, and quality procedures and management programs and systems Comprehensive understanding of integrated supply chain management including demand planning, forecasting and procurement Excellent written and verbal communication and interpersonal skills to interact with diverse groups of people inside and outside of the corporation Excellent analytical skills and the ability to exercise judgment and make critical decisions Proficient computer skills including familiarity with enterprise resource planning and business intelligence/analytics systems, Google, and MS Office applications Fluent in English and primary language used in area of responsibility and/or location"
- Then "Preferred Qualifications Experience with SAP or other ERP systems is a plus. Experience in a high volume manufacturing environment is a plus. APICS Certified in Production and Inventory management (CPIM) Six Sigma Black-Belt"
- Then "Travel Required Travel: 5-10%"
- Then company description (maybe about the role? but it's generic about company; could be omitted as boilerplate? It's not required but could be considered about the role? It's about the company; maybe we can include as a short paragraph under About the role? But it's not specific to the role; it's generic company info. Might be considered boilerplate but not EEO. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Company description is not those; but it's not specific to the role. Might be okay to keep? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." The company description is substantive about the employer; but not about the role. Could be kept but maybe not needed. However, we have limited sections; we could include a short paragraph under About the role that includes company description? But the About the role already has role goal; adding company description may be okay.
But we must not create sections with filler. We'll include About the role (p), Responsibilities (ul), Requirements (ul for required qualifications), Qualifications (ul for preferred qualifications), Skills (maybe combine personal attributes and skills from required qualifications? But required qualifications already includes skills like communication, analytical, computer skills. We could treat Required Qualifications as Requirements section, and Preferred Qualifications as Qualifications section. Skills maybe not needed separately if covered. But we could still include Skills section if we have distinct skill statements not captured elsewhere. The personal attributes "Excellent organization and record-keeping skills. A Keen eye for discrepancies and disruptions. A problem-solver." could be Skills. Also required qualifications includes communication, analytical, computer skills. Those could be under Skills as well. But to avoid duplication, we could put those under Skills and keep Requirements as just education/experience. However the instruction: "Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". So we can have multiple lists.
We need to decide sections: About the role (p), Responsibilities (ul), Requirements (ul for education/experience), Qualifications (ul for preferred), Skills (ul for personal attributes and maybe some skills). But we must not create sections with filler; we have content for each.
Let's extract:
About the role: "As the Manager of Materials your goal is to manage the flow of materials into, through, and out of the facility. You will collaborate with managers and teams throughout the facility to determine inventory and purchasing needs as they relate to production demand and forecasts and mitigate discrepancies and disruptions as they arise." Possibly also include company description? Might be okay to add after that as a short p: "Briggs & Stratton, headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, provides innovative products and diverse power solutions to help people get work done. Briggs & Stratton is the world’s largest producer of engines for outdoor power equipment, and is a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of lithium-ion battery, standby generator, energy storage system, lawn and turf care products through its Briggs & Stratton®, Vanguard®, Ferris®, Billy Goat®, and Branco® brands. Briggs & Stratton products are designed, manufactured, marketed and serviced in more than 100 countries on six continents." That's substantive about employer; we can include.
Responsibilities: list items from "You Will Do This By Leading a team..." etc. Let's extract each bullet:
- Leading a team to optimize forecast, demand planning and creates supply plans that ensure availability of service parts and products
- Monitoring forecasts and demand to identify changes or to determine their effect on supply chain activities
- Defining performance metrics for measurement, comparison, or evaluation of supply chain factors, inventory accuracy, and shipping/receiving compliance
- Analyzing inventories to determine how to increase inventory turns, manage fill rates, determine estimated time of arrival, reduce waste, or optimize customer service
- Managing production scheduling to meet the sales forecast
- Ensuring component and product inventory is stored and managed in an appropriate manner
- Partnering with Corporate functions to ensure proper roll out and adherence to corporate Supply Chain directives along with maximizing synergies with other Briggs & Stratton entities
- Managing activities related to tactical purchasing, material requirements planning, inventory control, Kanban, vendor managed inventory, logistics, warehousing, shipping and receiving
- Participating in the coordination of engineering changes, product line extensions, or new product launches to ensure orderly and timely transitions in material or production flow
- Performing a full range of managerial responsibilities which may include but not be limited to: interviewing, hiring, coaching and developing employees; planning, assigning and directing work; EEO/AA; performance management; department budget
- Performing other duties as assigned (maybe drop as generic)
We could keep the managerial responsibilities bullet but note EEO/AA maybe boilerplate; but it's part of responsibilities. Might keep but could be considered boilerplate? It's a standard managerial duty; but it's substantive. We'll keep but maybe remove EEO/AA as it's EEO boilerplate. The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. So we should remove "EEO/AA". So the bullet becomes: interviewing, hiring, coaching and developing employees; planning, assigning and directing work; performance management; department budget.
Also "Performing other duties as assigned" is generic; we can drop.
Requirements (required qualifications): list:
- Bachelor’s Degree in Supply Chain Management or a related field.
- Seven years of experience in supply chain management. (Note: original says "Sseven" typo; we keep as seven)
- Thorough knowledge of manufacturing, distribution, inventory, and quality procedures and management programs and systems
- Comprehensive understanding of integrated supply chain management including demand planning, forecasting and procurement
- Excellent written and verbal communication and interpersonal skills to interact with diverse groups of people inside and outside of the corporation
- Excellent analytical skills and the ability to exercise judgment and make critical decisions
- Proficient computer skills including familiarity with enterprise resource planning and business intelligence/analytics systems, Google, and MS Office applications
- Fluent in English and primary language used in area of responsibility and/or location
Qualifications (preferred):
- Experience with SAP or other ERP systems is a plus.
- Experience in a high volume manufacturing environment is a plus.
- APICS Certified in Production and Inventory management (CPIM)
- Six Sigma Black-Belt
Skills: personal attributes:
- Excellent organization and record-keeping skills.
- A keen eye for discrepancies and disruptions.
- A problem-solver.
Also maybe include travel required 5-10% as a note under Responsibilities or separate? Could be a short p under Responsibilities or after. Since it's not a duty but a condition, we could add a
after Responsibilities: "Travel required: 5-10%."
We must not create Pay/Benefits/Schedule sections.
