Twin Resources | Partnering with a Growing Manufacturing Company

Twin Resources is working with a well-established manufacturing client to find a Planning & Inventory Control Manager who can take ownership of production planning, materials strategy, and inventory performance. This is a high-impact role where you'll directly influence operational efficiency, customer satisfaction, and supply chain stability.

• Lead material planning (MRP) to ensure the right materials are available at the right time
• Manage and optimize inventory levels, accuracy, and control systems
• Partner across operations, procurement, sales, and finance to keep everything running smoothly
• Identify risks (shortages, excess stock) and proactively solve them
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives and track key performance metrics
• Lead and develop a team, building a strong culture of accountability and performance

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of experience in production planning, materials management, or inventory control
• 2+ years of leadership experience
• Strong experience with ERP/MRP systems
• Analytical mindset with the ability to solve complex supply chain challenges
• Experience in a manufacturing or assembly environment
• Bachelor's degree preferred (Supply Chain, Engineering, Business, or related)

What You Bring

• Ability to balance competing priorities in a fast-paced environment
• Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
• Knowledge of lean manufacturing, JIT, and supply chain best practices
