• Prepare job-work material lists and issue instructions with clear quantities and specifications.
• Track material dispatches, job-work progress, delivery schedules, and incoming components.
• Follow up with vendors to ensure timely delivery and required quality standards.
• Reconcile material sent to vendors against material received and report shortages, damage, or wastage.

Production Planning \& Coordination

• Prepare material readiness plans based on confirmed orders and production priorities.
• Coordinate with production supervisors, machine operators, stores, purchase, and project teams.
• Ensure production is not delayed due to missing cutlists, incorrect BOMs, or material shortages.
• Track pending jobs and escalate bottlenecks to the production manager.
• Maintain daily and weekly production planning and material status reports.

Required Skills \& Qualifications

• Diploma or Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Production Engineering, Furniture Technology, or a related field.
• Minimum 3 years of hands-on experience in modular furniture manufacturing.
