Manufacturing Production Planner

Itus Global is a rapidly growing provider of engineered diesel and gas genset packages and custom enclosures. We partner closely with leading fabricators and operate a technology-heavy environment, using modern project-management tools, automation, and AI to improve quality, speed, and transparency for our customers. We are building a high-performance team to deliver complex, multi-discipline projects in collaboration with engineering, supply chain, quality, and manufacturing partners. Role Overview The Production Planner owns and maintains the detailed program schedule in Celoxis across all active genset packaging projects, tracks milestones and target dates, and reports schedule risks and resource/capacity constraints to the Project Management team. This role owns the schedule, not the execution: the Planner develops, maintains, and reports on the program schedule, while each task owner remains accountable for completing their assigned work. This role is ideal for someone with 3–6 years of scheduling, project-controls, or planning experience in an industrial, manufacturing, construction, EPC, or energy environment who is comfortable maintaining a high volume of concurrent, detailed schedules. Key Responsibilities Program Scheduling (Celoxis) Build, set, and maintain detailed, logic-linked schedules for all active genset packages in Celoxis, including milestones, target dates, dependencies, and owners. Keep schedules and dashboards current as projects progress; ensure no outdated information across systems. Track milestone and target-date progress across all active projects, flagging slippage as it occurs. The Scheduler maintains the plan; each assigned Primary remains responsible for completing their own assigned task. Schedule Risk and Reporting Identify schedule bottlenecks and constraints; report them promptly to Project Management and leadership team for resolution. Support resource planning by forecasting resource needs across engineering, procurement, quality, and manufacturing based on current and anticipated workloads. Support capacity planning by coordinating with the project and sales teams to quantify future capacity needs against backlog. Systems and Process Support Ensure scheduling software and related project systems are set up and current soon after each project's internal kickoff. Perform routine checks to confirm dashboards and system data are current across all active projects. Identify recurring process bottlenecks and work with management to optimize and resolve them. Manufacturing and Cross-Functional Coordination Coordinate with the Project Operations Administrator and Manufacturing Facility to confirm build progress and reflect it accurately in the schedule. Work daily with Project Management, Engineering, Procurement, and Quality to collect schedule status and progress evidence. Support the Project Manager with schedule-related data and target-date coordination. AI-Enabled Schedule Management Use approved AI tools to help capture, organize, and summarize schedule status updates, risks, and action items. Maintain AI-supported scheduling workspaces and dashboards while following company requirements for confidentiality, data quality, and human review. Contribute ideas for improving scheduling templates, dashboards, and repeatable planning processes across projects. Customer and Cross-Functional Support Provide schedule extracts, milestone status, and look-ahead summaries to support customer progress reporting. Route technical, quality, commercial, or contractual matters raised during schedule reviews to the appropriate owner. Coordinate with Quality and Operations to reflect inspection, receiving, and material-status milestones in the schedule. General Responsibilities – Support to Sr. PM Support end-to-end program visibility from kickoff through shipment and closeout by maintaining accurate schedule data. Proactively identify schedule, resource, or capacity risks; escalate early with the sr. PM and pr…
