Description

We are looking for an experienced Program Capacity Lead to join our team and manage supplier capacity constraints across multiple Stellantis Assembly Plants.

Key responsibilities include but not limited to: 

  • Lead and Develop a Team: Manage and mentor a team of two analysts focused on supplier capacity and constraint management
  • Ensure Capacity Alignment: Ensure suppliers and programs are adequately prepared for demand-driven changes or product plan modifications well in advance of program launches
  • Resolve Capacity Shortfalls: Identify and address capacity issues by ensuring accurate release data and developing business cases to secure necessary funding for capacity solutions
  • Balance Short and Long-Term Planning: Manage both immediate and future capacity requirements to optimize production schedules and reduce inefficiency costs
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Purchasing, Engineering, Program Management, and other SCM groups to align on capacity needs and program timing
  • Continuous Improvement: Drive process improvements and propose solutions to enhance capacity planning and reduce bottlenecks
