• Managing information workflows around work orders, including job release and material consumption

• Participating in production line meetings to represent supply chain interests

• Contributing to minimizing product throughput time and maintaining optimal Work in Progress (WIP)

• Respecting Environment, Health & Safety (EHS) rules and participating in Safety Observation Visits (SOV)
