Overview

Job Description: Job Summary:The Director of SIOP owns BPP's long-term planning and short-term execution processes driven by SIOP (monthly cycle, 3-12 month horizon) and S&OE (Sales & Operations Execution, weekly cadence). The role connects Commercial Business, Engineering, Quality, Project Management, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, and Finance into a single operational planning rhythm, and feeds the Supply Chain Leader's IBP cycle with the operational inputs that drive strategic decision-making.The Director governs the SIOP and S&OE frameworks, cadences, and decision rights, and chairs the Executive SIOP meeting - facilitating the key discussions and decisions required by the BPP leadership team and resulting in approval of the operational consensus SIOP plan.The Director leads a three-person planning team - the Demand Planner (12-month consensus demand forecast), the Master Scheduler (Master Production Schedule, operational SIOP cycle facilitation, and S&OE function ownership), and the Operations Planning Manager (post-PO WIP and execution coordination). The Production Planner reports up through the Master Scheduler and executes the S&OE layer, with a dotted line to the Executive VP of Manufacturing for on-floor execution alignment. The Director is responsible for clean handoffs across the full chain - demand to supply to execution - with the resulting plan handed upward to the Supply Chain Leader for IBP integration.SIOP and S&OE Process Ownership and Governance:Serve as the designated process owner for both the SIOP / IBP-feeder framework (monthly) and the S&OE framework (weekly), ensuring both processes are defined, documented, implemented, and continuously improved.
