About the Role

This role is central to the Supply Chain Planning Centre of Excellence (CoE) and Project Hermes, a global planning transformation program. The Global Production Scheduling Business Process Expert (BPE) will be a senior subject matter expert influencing how Haleon designs, deploys, and sustains production scheduling capabilities across its global manufacturing network. The role requires deep expertise in production scheduling, including finite capacity planning, sequencing, changeover optimization, campaign design, schedule stability, and manufacturing execution.

Responsibilities

Supporting production scheduling process design based on daily data analysis and KPI dashboards, covering line loading, sequencing, changeover optimization, campaign and wheel structures, and short horizon rescheduling.
Ensuring adherence to scheduling principles, guidelines, and process, including frozen and firm horizon definition, rules for breaking the frozen period, and standard escalation when the schedule cannot absorb a change.
Defining the handover standard from master production scheduling into detailed scheduling, and from detailed scheduling into shop floor execution, with defined content, timing, and acceptance tests for each handover.
Defining the standard for schedule adherence measurement, deviation coding, and the daily loss review.
Maintaining process documentation, RACI, and standard operating procedures for the scheduling discipline, and keeping them current as the solution evolves.
Supporting the Global Scheduling Process Owner in defining Daily Management Standards (DMS) and Daily Direction Setting (DDS) for the scheduling discipline, aligned with the site daily management system.
Defining the exception and alert framework that directs scheduler attention, including capacity conflict, material or component unavailability, sequence violation, late order, and schedule break.
Driving DMS and DDS deployment into sites, and coaching schedulers and site leadership through the initial cycles of the new cadence.
Establishing the scheduling-related scorecard and its associated KPIs, including schedule adherence, schedule stability within the frozen horizon, changeover time and count, line utilization, and the contribution of scheduling decisions to overall equipment effectiveness.
Supporting root cause analysis on KPI performance and translating findings into specific process, parameter, or capability actions.
Aligning end-to-end transformation overarching processes with other end-to-end streams and with internal and external partners, particularly Manufacturing, Engineering, and Quality.
Supporting system-related functionality build in cooperation with the system integrator, system provider, and internal global and local teams, including advanced scheduling and optimization solutions.
Supporting alignment of data gathering and transformation standards with enterprise-wide stakeholders, especially Technology and Manufacturing.
Driving improvement in data quality in cooperation with related internal and external teams, with a focus on routings, rates, changeover matrices, resource calendars, shift patterns, and setup groups.
Owning scheduling-side planning parameter definitions such as scheduling horizon, sequence and setup rules, minimum campaign size, dispatching logic, and buffer times, in partnership with the GPO Planning Parameters & Synchronization.
Assisting Change Impact Assessment (CIA), training development, and documentation in cooperation with internal and external partners.
Supporting the global rollout of process, system, and scorecard into manufacturing sites, including proof of concept and pilot sites before wider deployment.
Supporting site teams in understanding the process, the system, and the tasks related to roll-out preparation, and capturing site feedback to improve subsequent waves.
Transitioning ownership of the deployed standard into the CoE once the program steps back, ensuring all elements have an owner.

Requirements

Deep working knowledge of production scheduling: finite scheduling logic, sequencing and changeover optimization, campaign and wheel design, frozen horizon management, and the relationship between schedule quality and line performance.
Ability to hold credible technical conversations with planners, system integrators, and senior leadership.
Strong numerical and analytical skills with the ability to combine data from different sources, build and maintain KPI dashboards, draw conclusions, create action plans, and follow through.
Ability to generate insight from both quantitative and qualitative analysis.
Expertise in process design, Lean Six Sigma, and other process improvement approaches.
Proven experience in process design, simplification, standardization, alignment, and roll-out.
Ability to plan, sequence, and land deliverables within a program structure, manage dependencies across workstreams, and maintain pace against a critical path.
Experience and capability in guiding multi-national and cross-functional teams within a matrix environment without direct line authority.
Strong change leadership experience, including assessing change impact, anticipating resistance, and building the case for new ways of working.
Good communication and team-oriented skills.
Senior stakeholder management skills and experience in engaging internal customers.
Ability to convey ideas concisely and clearly to markets, Business Units, and senior management, and to push back constructively where necessary.
Ability to stay close to the ground to understand the real end-user experience and perspective and reflect it in the design.
