Responsibilities: ERP Plan Monitoring & Follow-Up:

Monitor the production plan in the ERP system daily for all Phase 2 machines (injection and blow moulding); compare planned output against actual production reported by shift supervisors and flag any variance to the Production Planner & Executor immediately.
Follow up with Phase 2 Injection and Blow Moulding production supervisors at regular intervals during the shift to obtain actual production counts per machine and per SKU; record and update tracking sheets in real time.
Identify machines or SKUs running behind plan and escalate to the production planner & executor with a clear summary of the shortfall, likely cause, and estimated recovery time.
Update the ERP production plan under the direction of the production planner & executor when schedule changes, delays, or order priority shifts are confirmed — ensuring plan accuracy is maintained at all times.

Mould Change Coordination:

Before any mould change is initiated on a Phase 2 machine, confirm with the relevant production supervisor that the current production run has been completed as planned or obtain revised quantity and explanation if not.
Communicate the confirmed mould change schedule to the production supervisor and maintenance engineer (expat/local) in advance; ensure the next job card, material, and colour are ready before the change begins.
If a current run is not complete and a mould change is due, escalate to the Production Planner Executor for a decision — never independently authorise a plan deviation.
Record all mould changes in the ERP and tracking log including: machine number, outgoing SKU, quantity produced, incoming SKU, change start time, and change completion time.

Supervisor Liaison & Floor Communication:

Serve as the daily communication link between the production planner & executor and the Phase 2 Injection and Blow Moulding production supervisors — translating plan requirements into clear floor instructions and feeding floor reality back to the planner.
Attend the daily shift start briefing for Phase 2 and communicate the day's production priorities, any plan changes, and special instructions from the Production Planner & Executor to the supervisors.
Maintain a running log of all communications, plan changes, and supervisor confirmations throughout the shift for accountability and traceability.

Reporting:

Prepare and submit a daily Phase 2 production tracking report to the Production Planner & Executor covering: plan vs actual per machine, mould changes completed, pending completions, variances, and open issues.
Maintain an accurate and up-to-date SKU-level production log for Phase 2 machines that can be referenced by the Production Planner & Executor at any time during the shift.

Requirements:

HND minimum in mechanical, industrial, production, or any engineering/science discipline.
3–5 years experience in a production planning support, coordination, or shop floor tracking role in a manufacturing environment.
Strong computer literacy — non-negotiable: must be proficient in ERP systems, Microsoft Excel (intermediate level minimum including formulas, filters, and pivot tables), Outlook, and Microsoft Teams.
Ability to read and interpret production plans, job cards, and SKU schedules across multiple machines simultaneously.\
Strong attention to detail — must be able to identify plan vs actual discrepancies quickly and report accurately.
Good communication and follow-up discipline — proactive, consistent, and does not wait to be chased for updates.
Ability to work calmly under production pressure and manage multiple follow-ups simultaneously across Phase 2 machines.
Basic understanding of injection moulding and blow moulding production processes — sufficient to have an informed conversation with supervisors and maintenance engineers.
Strong written and spoken English for reports, ERP entries, and communication with the Production Planner & Executor.

Working Relationships:

This role reports exclusively to the Production Planner & Executor and has no independent decision- making authority on production plan changes, mould change approvals, or schedule revisions.
All decisions are escalated to and confirmed by the Production Planner & Executor.
The coordinator works in daily contact with Phase 2 Injection and Blow Moulding production supervisors for floor data and communicates with maintenance engineers as needed for mould change timing.
No direct external communication with sales, procurement, or customers — all such matters go through the Production Planner & Executor.
