• Working closely with our Production teams, Purchasing, Receiving, Sales, Design, and Business Operations, you will help ensure customer orders move efficiently from initial production planning through completion. From monitoring schedules and coordinating vendor deliveries to communicating priorities and following up on outstanding items, you will play an important role in keeping our commitments to customers on track.

  • Maintain accurate records of vendor communications, material status, and order-related updates.
• Team Coordination & Problem-Solving
  
  • Work directly with production team members and team leads to communicate priorities and clarify next steps.
  • Help resolve routine scheduling, documentation, and production-flow issues.
  • Escalate significant production disruptions, safety concerns, and employee policy or conduct matters to the General Manager. Formal policy and disciplinary conversations are handled by the General Manager.
  • Identify recurring problems and recommend practical improvements.
  • Provide day-to-day workflow direction and help coordinate work between production areas.
• Documentation & Process Improvement
  
  • Maintain accurate production schedules, order trackers, paperwork, and status reports.
  • Update order information in company systems and spreadsheets.
  • Follow up on approvals, materials, and other dependencies to prevent orders from stalling.
  • Identify opportunities to improve organization, communication, and workflow efficiency.

To ensure clarity and alignment, this role:

• Does not make decisions regarding employee relations, corrective action, or organizational needs.
• Does not approve time off, schedules, or payroll.
• Does not enforce policy; only supports documentation and coordination.
• May step in only in urgent situations when a manager is unavailable.
• All policies and final decisions are owned and approved by leadership.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of experience in manufacturing coordination, production coordination, production planning, or operations within a physical-product & multi-product environment.
• Experience working directly on a manufacturing or production floor, observing workflows, identifying bottlenecks, and coordinating solutions with production team members.
• Experience creating, documenting, or updating Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), work instructions, or other process documentation.
• Demonstrated ability to coordinate production schedules, prioritize orders, track materials, and follow up with vendors or internal departments.
• Strong organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to manage competing deadlines and shifting priorities.
