Job Summary

Leads and delivers Safety, Quality, Cost, Delivery, and People (SQCDP) performance for Senior Production Manager – Operations Control across PECNA Operations.

  • Strengthens PDCA by ensuring recurring gaps have verified countermeasures and sustainment checks.

Team Development & Knowledge Sharing

  • Builds cross-functional routines that reinforce ownership and closure with evidence.

Cross-Functional Collaboration & Stakeholder Engagement

  • Partners with Supply Chain to translate production plans into executable schedules and to manage constraints/risks.
  • Coordinates PMO project execution support to remove operational constraints and ensure SOP readiness and handover discipline.
  • Ensures supply chain value-stream alignment upstream/downstream to maintain inventory thresholds and WIP health.

Quality, Safety, Compliance, & Risk Management

  • Ensures all cadence and decision-making maintains the non-negotiable standards for Personal Safety and Quality.
  • Ensures audit-ready transaction discipline for material movement, holds, and reconciliations.

Supervisory Responsibilities

  • Directly leads Production Manager – Inventory Control and Production Manager – Planning & PMO.
  • Owns the Operations Control cadence and governance connecting planning, inventory, and execution across departments.
