A Snapshot of Your Day
A typical day in your role starts with a morning team meeting to discuss planning activities and set priorities. You will review important metrics to ensure targets are on track, analyze deviations, and develop optimization strategies. Throughout the day, you'll attend meetings with project management, production, and supply chain to adjust project weightings, identify bottlenecks, and find solutions. Based on team input, you'll define action items and establish measures to optimize planning. In the afternoon, you'll work on developing planning tools and the SAP structure, and moderate strategic meetings to align planning with company goals. The day often ends with a progress review and planning for the next day.
