From Victor Sierra Aviation's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Victor Sierra Aviation (VSA) — a TransDigm Group company — is the parent of McFarlane Aviation, McFarlane Alaska, Tempest Aero Group®, AV8, and Aviation Products Systems. We acquire and build businesses that lead in engineering, manufacturing, and distribution of exceptional aerospace products, with 450 employees across Kansas, North Carolina, Alaska, Washington, and Texas.
McFarlane Aviation
Headquartered in Baldwin City, Kansas, McFarlane Aviation has spent more than 50 years engineering, manufacturing, and distributing high-quality FAA-PMA aircraft parts, controls, cables, and aerospace components for general aviation, commercial, military, and experimental aircraft. The team is committed to delivering better parts with exceptional, old-fashioned customer service — the McFarlane way.
THE OPPORTUNITY
The SIOP (Supply, Inventory, Operations & Planning) Manager leads McFarlane Aviation's planning, purchasing, inventory, and distribution functions, with oversight of the Purchasing team and the Distribution Supervisor. This role builds the systems and processes that turn customer demand, material requirements, supplier capability, and production capacity into an executable plan — with a strong focus on our ERP/MRP system and improving on-time delivery, fill rate, schedule attainment, and inventory performance.
We’re looking for someone who can pull planning, purchasing, inventory, and distribution together into one connected system, partners closely with Operations, and is just as comfortable running the planning cadence from the ERP screen as walking the warehouse floor with the Distribution team.
Success in this role means building a scalable planning and supply chain system that provides clear answers to fundamental operating questions:
· What do we need to make and when?
· What materials are required to support the plan?
· Do we have the internal and supplier capacity to execute it?
· Where are the constraints and risks before they impact the customer?
· What should we stock, how much should we stock, and why?
· Can our ERP/MRP system provide reliable signals that our team can execute against?
Ultimately, success will be demonstrated through measurable improvement in customer OTD, fill rate, schedule attainment, material availability, supplier performance, inventory accuracy, distribution performance, and planning effectiveness, while reducing reliance on expediting and manual intervention.
WHY MCFARLANE AVIATION?
At McFarlane Aviation, you’re part of a team that takes pride in Making It Better. Whether you're assembling parts or sharing ideas, you play a key role in keeping the skies safe. We believe in old-school customer service, doing the right thing, and building better parts through real teamwork and integrity.
