Job Description
Planning and Delivery Lead
Full Time
Bristol
We have an exciting opportunity for a Planning and Delivery Lead (PDL) to join us in Bristol and play a key role in our Defence Future Programmes business.
As a PDL for Future Programmes, you’ll play an integral role within the Supply Chain team in the planning, delivery and controlling of schedules along with coordinating material requirements at suppliers. Ensuring a controlled flow for materials is timed to meet programme requirements. This is an exciting opportunity, as you’ll work with cross functional teams whilst advising management of the status of work and proactively overcoming potential obstacles.
What we offer
We offer excellent development opportunities, a competitive salary, and exceptional benefits. These include bonus, employee support assistance and employee discounts.
Your needs are as unique as you are. Hybrid working is a way in which our people can balance their time between the office, home, or another remote location. It’s a locally managed and flexed informal discretionary arrangement. As a minimum we’re all expected to attend the workplace for collaboration and other specific reasons, on average three days per week.
What you will be doing?
In this role you will get to be hands on in ensuring the department continues to deliver on customer expectations. Your role will be pivotal in ensuring timelines are met and materials are available to allow development schedules to be met. We are looking for someone who is receptive to change, deals with ambiguity and has strong communication and teamwork skills. You will operate as the “gearbox” between the external supply chain and our internal design teams.
Responsibilities:
* To be the primary interface and lead operational relationships with suppliers and co-ordinate all activity associated with planning, manufacture, control, delivery and lead time.
* To lead business reviews with suppliers ensuring that both the suppliers and Rolls-Royce requirements are being met considering the impact of Quality and Delivery.
* To ensure specified supplier delivery commitments are reflected in our systems and to be a key team player whilst being receptive to changes.
* To ensure the maintenance of component planning data, tooling registers and associated data that will manage demand and stock through the supply chain.
Who we are looking for?
At Rolls-Royce we put safety first, do the right thing, keep it simple and make a difference. These principles form the behaviours that guide us and are an essential component of our assessment process. They are the fundamental qualities that we seek for all roles.
* Experience in manufacturing, procurement and contract management, preferably in an Aerospace environment or similar manufacturing engineering business.
* A good knowledge of SAP ERP systems, or equivalent & standard Microsoft tools.
* Ability to work in a challenging and pressured environment as well as quickly understanding the complex organisations, functions, supply chains, regulations and processes.
* First class communication, influencing and negotiating skills, both internally and externally, and at all business levels and be able to demonstrate commercial awareness.
All flexible working options will be considered. We expect some on site presence in the Bristol office as well as some travel. Mostly nationally but on occasions some international.
We are an equal opportunities employer. We’re committed to developing a diverse workforce and an inclusive working environment. We believe that people from different backgrounds and cultures give us different perspectives which are crucial to innovation and problem solving. We believe the more diverse perspectives we have, the more successful we’ll be. By building a culture of caring and belonging, we give everyone who works here the opportunity to realise their full potential.
We welcome applications from people with a refugee background.
Interviews will take place the week of the 27th Jan
