Tired of the same old planning job where you’re buried in spreadsheets and just a cog in the machine? This one’s different. We need a Production Planner who can balance sales, technical, and production demands like a pro. You’ll be the one making sure everything flows in the factory, both in Low Risk and High Risk areas, and handling processed and boxed stock like a juggler on a tightrope. Oh, and don’t forget about those ever-changing customer specs. They’ll keep you on your toes. Here’s what you’ll be up to: Keeping sales, technical, and production teams singing from the same hymn sheet. Working with Production Managers to make sure you’ve got the right resources for the plan. Managing stock like a hawk and questioning any funny numbers. Scrutinising incoming orders against forecasts—because who needs surprises? Adjusting the plan on the fly, because change is the only constant. Getting clued up on new products, spec changes, and promotions, and figuring out how they’ll mess with the plan (because they will). Helping out on projects that push you outside your comfort zone. Training up on all things planning, because we’re big on development. And, because we’re human, covering holiday shifts for your teammates. What do we need from you? If you’re organised to a fault, confident, and a stickler for detail, you’ll fit right in. You’ll need to be handy with numbers, know your way around a computer, and be cool with juggling competing deadlines. Basically, we need someone who can keep calm and carry on when everything's kicking off. What’s in it for you? Progression opportunities to grow your career A challenging and engaging role. The chance to get involved in various projects. Sound like you? Let’s chat. Apply below and we’ll reach out for a confidential conversation.
