Construction Scheduling Coordinator

Job Description

We are seeking a detail-oriented and reliable Planning Coordinator to support our team in data entry and backlog management.

Responsibilities

• Enter and manage data accurately to support planning operations.
• Maintain and update Bills of Materials (BOMs).
• Create and process work orders efficiently.
• Assist in managing backlog and coordinating with schedulers.
• Support the training of new team members as needed.

• High attention to detail and accuracy.
• Understanding of work orders, BOMs, routings, operations, lead times, and due dates.
• Experience with ERP systems such as Oracle, SAP, JD Edwards, or NetSuite.
• Basic Excel skills, including filtering, sorting, and basic formulas.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• Team-oriented and open to direction from Production Control leadership.
• Reliability and consistency in work habits.

• Experience in production scheduling, capacity planning, and material availability checks.
• Familiarity with supporting planners or schedulers.
• Knowledge of purchasing, scheduling, and understanding of process changes.
• Experience in data entry and a desire to learn more.
• High School diploma required.
• Basic understanding of manufacturing processes.

The work environment is supportive and team-oriented, with flexible hours from 7 AM to 5 PM, allowing for any 8-hour shift. Initial training will be hands-on, from 8 AM to 4 PM, for the first two weeks. The team is small and easy-going, not too rigid, and is open to communication across all levels. The role may involve high-stress periods typical of a manufacturing environment. Employees are expected to dress in jeans and an appropriate shirt with steel-toed boots, which will be reimbursed. This entry-level position offers potential growth into a production planner role in the future.
