pendencies, and resource requirements involved in the manufacture of complex plastic injection molds.
Reporting directly to the Operations Manager, the Scheduler is responsible for developing, maintaining, and communicating production schedules across the full mold manufacturing process, including design, engineering, material preparation, machining, gun drilling, EDM, benching, assembly, spotting, tryout, corrections, and final delivery.
The Scheduler works closely with manufacturing leadership, program management, engineering, purchasing, quality, and production departments to ensure labour, machines, materials, subcontracted services, and project requirements are aligned with customer commitments.
This position focuses on maintaining accurate and achievable schedules, identifying bottlenecks and capacity constraints, monitoring mold progress, and adjusting priorities as operational conditions change. Success in this role requires a strong understanding of mold manufacturing workflows, excellent communication skills, attention to detail, sound judgment, and the ability to coordinate multiple high-priority projects within a fast-paced custom manufacturing environment.
Key Responsibilities
Develops, maintains, and updates detailed production schedules for plastic injection mold manufacturing projects.
Plans and sequences work through key manufacturing stages, including design, engineering release, material procurement, rough machining, semi-finish machining, finish machining, gun drilling, EDM, benching, assembly, spotting, tryout, corrections, and shipment.
Reviews project timelines, customer delivery dates, manufacturing capacity, labour availability, material readiness, and machine requirements when developing schedules.
Coordinates scheduling priorities across machining, EDM, gun drilling, grinding, welding, polishing, benching, assembly, and tryout departments.
Works closely with program management, engineering, production leadership, purchasing, quality, and subcontractors to confirm project requirements and milestone dates.
Monitors mold progress against planned schedules and follows up with department leaders regarding delays, incomplete work, quality concerns, or changing priorities.
Identifies potential bottlenecks, capacity limitations, resource conflicts, and delivery risks before they affect project timelines.
Adjusts schedules as required based on engineering changes, customer revisions, material delays, machine downtime, staffing levels, quality issues, tryout results, or other operational conditions.
Communicates schedule changes, priority shifts, critical-path concerns, and delivery risks to relevant stakeholders in a timely manner.
Participates in daily production meetings and provides clear updates regarding mold status, departmental workloads, upcoming priorities, and at-risk milestones.
Reviews work orders, mold designs, bills of material, manufacturing routings, program schedules, and technical documentation to confirm scope, sequencing, and timing requirements.
Ensures project schedules and manufacturing progress are accurately maintained within the company’s ERP, scheduling, or production management systems.
Tracks key project and scheduling metrics, including schedule adherence, departmental performance, machine capacity, project milestone completion, and on-time delivery.
