Master Scheduler I
SUMMARY DESCRIPTION
The Master Production Scheduler provides the linkage between strategy and the tactical execution required to deliver on the mission of Technical Operations: innovate and implement agile and robust capabilities to rapidly offer an uninterrupted supply of high-quality products to patients in an efficient and compliant manner.
Sales & Operations Planning is the primary link between the strategic plan and the tactical plan. This process provides the connection between the desired outcome and the actual outcome. One of the direct outputs of the Sales & Operations Plan is the Production Plan. This plan is the marching order for the Master Scheduler. The Master Scheduler must ensure that the sum of the individual items in the Master Schedule matches the Production Plan. Accomplishing this closes the loop between the business plan and the company's daily & weekly activities.
This crucial role translates the production plan into a master schedule each month. They also facilitate plant governance that focuses on (production and non-production) order performance in alignment with the production plan end item due date commitments. As such, they act as the 'air traffic controller,' prioritizing orders in the system by assigning due dates that can be converted into detailed and shop floor control schedules as needed.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Define and update, regularly and routinely, with work center owners and identified process experts, the parameters needed for rough cut and detailed capacity planning—including lead times, yields, success rates, run rates, and production calendars;
- Participate in internal plant governance, leading or facilitating as needed, to ensure that priorities and due dates are valid, clear, and aligned across work centers in a shared, aligned, and realistic manner. Ensure that assumptions and master data used to build orders and schedules reflect demonstrated capacity and not aspirational goals.
- Strong focus on visibility boards for all Novato Make/Assess/Release measures and status with particular focus on Scheduling and S&OP (coordinating DS, DP batch release activities to ensure material is available for Filling & Packaging schedules when required)
- Own and enforce the production schedule time fences: frozen, trading, and free. Manage escalation and decision-making around planning time fence crashes.
- Convert the supply network plan orders in the approved production plan into process orders in a master schedule for the plant (as defined). Ensure that all process orders' outputs and due dates add up to and match the commitments incorporated into the production plan.
- Develop and support local and global programs/initiatives to deliver transformational change and continuous improvement across our processes and KPI's.
- Proactively troubleshoot complex issues & continually supports Material Operations Planning & Scheduling team and colleagues from other functional groups.
- Align with strategies and realization of company, site, and functional goals.
SCOPE
The work product from the Master Scheduler will indirectly support product revenue and other programs executed in the network, will be a significant driver for Manufacturing expenses, and will highly impact operational and transportation costs of external operations.
The Master Scheduler is an individual contributor role. This crucial role is also a member of the wider BioMarin Supply Chain community and participates in network initiatives and efforts, including improving governance and delivering Supply Chain Strategic objectives.
EDUCATION
- Bachelor in Business, Operations Management, Industrial Engineering or equivalent required

EXPERIENCE
- Minimum 5 years of production planning and scheduling experience required or equivalent
