MD Material & Planning Senior Manager

• Own the M&D Master Production Schedule: Create one forward-looking plan defining what needs to be built, where and when, aligned with project/customer priorities and execution capability.
• Own Material & MRP Readiness: Translate demand into the right material signals, identify shortages and long-lead risks early, and drive Procurement/Sourcing actions to ensure material is available when required.
• Own M&D Inventory: Own the overall inventory position and performance of the M&D business, balancing material availability with inventory efficiency and driving actions on excess, ageing and obsolete inventory.
• Integrate Project Demand with Execution: Connect Projects → Engineering → MPS/MRP → Materials/Sourcing → Manufacturing/Yards → Customer Delivery, creating one aligned execution plan across the business.
• Manage Capacity & Execution Risk: Ensure demand is achievable against internal manufacturing and external-yard capacity, engineering readiness and material availability, identifying and escalating constraints early.
• Support the Industrialisation of M&D: Enable the transition of appropriate repeatable scope toward a Manufacturing model, including UTA/SDU Lite, Manifold Valve Blocks and potentially coupler-tail welding, while establishing the planning and material strategy needed to support this shift.
• Lead the M&D Planning Organisation: Set priorities and drive planning discipline across Master Scheduling, Material Planning, Production Planning and Product/Project Delivery Planning, creating one integrated planning organisation.
