What are the responsibilities and job description for the Production Planner position at PS SEASONING & SPICES INC?
About PS Seasoning
We're a four-generation, family-owned flavor company headquartered in Iron Ridge, WI, and we've been crafting award-winning spice blends, seasonings, and food products since 1986. We're not a faceless corporation — we're a tight-knit team that takes real pride in what we make and how we treat each other. When you join PS Seasoning, you're stepping into a culture built on integrity, craftsmanship, and the kind of loyalty that actually means something.
The Role
We're looking for a sharp, organized Production Planner to help keep our manufacturing operation running smoothly. You'll own scheduling and production planning for assigned value chain areas, working closely with our production and supply chain teams to make sure the right product is in the right place at the right time. This role reports to the Senior Manager of Planning and Transportation.
This is a role for someone who likes to solve problems, not just document them — someone who'll look at a production bottleneck and immediately start thinking about how to fix it.
What You'll Do
- Build and manage production schedules to meet customer demand and finished goods targets
- Develop production plans aligned to the master schedule and monitor execution
- Manage finished goods inventory to minimize cost and hit delivery deadlines
- Identify and implement process and efficiency improvements
- Partner closely with production leads, supervisors, and cross-functional teams to stay aligned
- Coordinate raw material and product delivery timing with other departments
- Follow GMP, HACCP, and all safety and quality standards
What We're Looking For
- 3–5 years of production planning or scheduling experience in a manufacturing environment
- Hands-on experience with ERP/MRP systems (Deacom experience is a plus)
- Strong Excel and Smartsheet skills
- Clear communicator who works well across teams and can adapt quickly when priorities shift
- Organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable in a fast-paced environment
- Flexibility to occasionally support off-hours needs when the business requires it
- Willingness to be onsite 5 days per week at our Iron Ridge facility
What We Offer
- Medical, dental, and vision insurance
- 401(k) with company match
- PTO
- Product discounts — because obviously
- A stable, growing company where your work actually matters and your contributions are noticed
