- Coordinate material priorities with Production, Procurement, and Warehouse teams to ensure timely component availability. Provide transparency on critical items, backlog situations, and expediting requirements to key stakeholders.
- Maintain traceability of all material movements, planning changes, and exception handling in compliance with EDGE Group standards and regulatory requirements. Ensure proper documentation and system updates for audits and KPI reporting.
- 2–4 years of experience in Material Planning, Procurement, or Production Control within a manufacturing or engineering organization.
- Practical experience in running MRP processes using SAP or comparable ERP systems.
- Familiarity with BOM structures, lead-time management, and supplier coordination.

- Proficiency in SAP MM/MRP modules and Excel-based data analysis
