Production Scheduler

Our Mission and Purpose Our mission is clear: to be North America’s premier packaging solutions provider, simplifying client operations with innovative, technology-driven solutions. We are fueled by the values instilled by Nick Novy, aiming to not just meet but exceed industry benchmarks. Our purpose is to empower our customers with smarter business decisions through our expertise. Korpack’s Promise: FAST and Beyond Korpack stands for more than just speed. Our F.A.S.T methodology – Fearless, Adaptable, Simplistic, and Technology-driven – is a testament to our approach toward complex challenges. We’re not afraid to dive deep and tackle the toughest packaging puzzles with agility and clarity, all while harnessing the power of technology. Culture: The Korpack Difference In the heart of Korpack, there’s a culture that thrives on agility, innovation, and relentless pursuit of excellence. We’re not your typical packaging company. Our start-up spirit combined with our industry experience makes us uniquely dynamic. We embrace challenges, turning them into opportunities to innovate and grow. Our team, akin to a close-knit family, is dedicated to achieving success for our clients. We believe in building relationships based on trust, integrity, and mutual respect. About The Job Korpack is a food-grade, SQF-certified contract packaging company — and a three-time Inc. 5000 honoree in the last six years as one of America's fastest-growing companies. Growth like ours creates a very specific kind of scheduling challenge: a wide variety of products, customers whose needs change fast, and a production plan that has to flex without breaking. We're looking for a Production Scheduler who thrives in exactly that environment. Not someone who prints a schedule Monday and defends it all week — someone who treats the schedule as a living thing, re-sequences with confidence when reality changes, and keeps production, materials, and shipping all rowing in the same direction while it happens. The Journey You’ll report to our Director of Manufacturing Operations and own the production schedule across our facilities. Your day lives inside our ERP (Acumatica) and scheduling tools — building the plan, validating material availability, sequencing changeovers intelligently, and communicating changes so the floor is never surprised. You’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with Production Managers, Materials Managers, and our customer-facing teams. When a customer moves a date, when a line goes down, when materials land early or late — you're the person who reworks the puzzle and gets the new answer out fast. What Success Looks Like The floor runs off the schedule — because the schedule is accurate, achievable, and current Schedule changes are absorbed in hours, not days, and communicated before they become surprises Changeovers are sequenced to minimize downtime, not just to check boxes Material availability is confirmed before a job is scheduled, not discovered when the line is waiting On-time performance to customer commitments climbs and stays there The schedule lives in the system — visible, current, and trusted — not in a spreadsheet only you understand Requirements Experience scheduling in a fast-paced manufacturing environment is required — food packaging or food-grade experience is strongly preferred, including familiarity with allergen sequencing, sanitation windows, lot control, and why food products add extra scheduling considerations. Experience with co-manufacturing or co-packing is a plus — you understand what it means to run someone else’s product, on their timeline, to their specifications. Highly tech savvy — you're genuinely comfortable living in an MRP/ERP system and dedicated scheduling software, and you pick up new tools fast (we run Acumatica) Experience scheduling in a high-mix environment — a company that makes a wide variety of products with frequent schedule changes, not one SKU on repeat Strong communicator — you deliver schedule changes clearly, quickly, and without drama Organized under pressure — you can hold competing priorities and re-sequence without losing the thread The Challenges Let's be honest: co-packing means the schedule changes. A customer's launch moves, a truck shows up a day early, a line needs maintenance — and your beautiful plan from this morning is history. This role is not for someone who finds schedule changes stressful; it's for someone who finds them interesting. You'll also be building alongside us — as we grow into new space, the scheduling processes and tools will keep evolving, and you'll have a real voice in shaping them. The Reward Three Inc. 5000 appearances in six years means one thing for the people who join us now: opportunity. We are actively building out our leadership and operations teams, we promote from within, and a scheduler who proves they can own the plan at Korpack today will have doors open tomorrow that simply don't exist at flat, slow-growth companies. You'll be trusted with real ownership, measured on results, and surrounded by people who take pride in winning as a team. How We DISRUPT Determined — The right solution doesn't come easy, but we're determined to find it and implement it. Innovative — The only way to discover the limits of the possible is to go beyond them into the impossible. Responsive — Speed, agility, and accuracy in addressing our internal and external customers is in our DNA. Understanding — Listen. Understand. Anticipate. Respond. Proactive — Don't wait for something to happen, MAKE it happen. You are what you do, not what you say you will do. Teamwork — Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships. Smile — Smiles are contagious... be a carrier. Our Commitment to You At Korpack, customer delight is not just a goal; it’s our way of doing business. We are committed to delivering quality services consistently, on time, and maintaining enduring relationships. Our endeavor is to continually enhance our performance and adhere to the highest statutory and regulatory standards. #J-18808-Ljbffr Korpack
