Senior Production Planner

You’re the planner people turn to when things get complicated. You see the bottleneck coming three weeks out, you know why the KPI moved, and you’d rather fix the process than firefight the same problem twice.
At Techo-Bloc, we’re looking for that person to become the go-to planning expert of our Saint-Hubert team. You’ll own the schedule for key lines, shape our short, medium and long-term plans, build better tools, and help grow the next generation of planners. Your ideas won’t sit in a deck: you’ll have the room and the backing to implement them.
Why you’ll love this role
A real planning challenge. Strong seasonality, high-volume peaks, a wide range of SKUs, colors and textures. This is planning at its most interesting.
Influence that counts. You’ll work side by side with the Planning Manager and have a direct voice with production, procurement and sales.
Room to build. We expect you to improve how we plan, from tools and templates to processes and KPIs, not just run the existing system.
A leadership role, without the org chart. Mentor planners and set the standard for the team.
A company that grows its people. Over 850 employees, a growing North American footprint, and career paths in almost every department.
Close to home for the South Shore. No bridge, no downtown commute.
What you’ll do
Plan for today and for the season ahead
Own the daily and weekly production schedule for your assigned lines and keep orders accurate in our MRP/ERP system.
Translate demand forecasts into realistic plans aligned with actual capacity, over the short, medium and long term.
Anticipate capacity, bottleneck and sequencing risks, and work with the Planning Manager to address them before they hit the floor.
Turn data into decisions
Analyze demand, trends and historical data to spot risks and opportunities early.
Prevent stockouts and excess inventory before they have an impact.
Drive KPI performance (service level, changeovers, excess inventory, backorder lead time): understand the trends, propose actions and follow them through.
Make planning better
Turn day-to-day pain points into lasting fixes: build the tools, adjust the processes, measure the results.
Lead corrective actions and confirm they actually worked.
Lead through expertise
Be the team’s go-to planning expert.
Coach and onboard planners, and pass on best practices, procedures and tool know-how.
Collaborate proactively with sales on demand and priorities, and with production and procurement on execution.
