• Develop and run functional reports for the production planning department.
• Participate in a monthly forum with site leadership, presenting on supply challenges posed by complexities in the supply chain for the assigned portfolio.
• Connect with manufacturing, quality, engineering, and distribution colleagues to ensure customer service targets are met.
• Communicate broadly, both within site to all levels (wage employees through site manager) and external to site (other internal J&J plants as well as suppliers).
• Provide updates to domestic and international partners and markets on supply projections.
• Lead activities for a network of co-ops at the local Warsaw, Indiana facility.
