Schedule

Your typical hours are 7:00am to 3:30pm. You'll start by checking what changed overnight—new orders, material updates, and any schedule impacts. Throughout the day, you'll move between the floor and your workstation to confirm where jobs stand, then update the schedule and order status so others can act on accurate information. Expect quick check-ins with sales and team leads, short bursts of document and spreadsheet work, and time set aside to follow up on items that could affect ship dates. You'll wrap up by making sure the next day's priorities are clear and the latest customer changes are recorded.
