S&OP Analyst

Owens Corning•Tampa, FL

About The Position

The S&OE Analyst provides dedicated execution support to the Wholesale Sales & Operations Execution (S&OE) organization by monitoring material availability, coordinating shortage recovery, and driving planning exceptions to closure. The role converts daily S&OE priorities into coordinated actions across plants, procurement, logistics, and planning, helping protect customer commitments and production continuity. Success is reflected in timely risk visibility, disciplined exception follow-through, improved support for inventory deployment and network balancing, and stronger planning-data discipline. By owning tactical material-planning work, the position also increases leadership capacity for network optimization, process governance, Kinaxis/Maestro adoption, service recovery, and cost-to-serve improvement.
