About the Job
We are currently recruiting Logistics Planners to join our busy, friendly planning team, based at our East Midlands Gateway Distribution Centre.
In this interesting, challenging role, you will be responsible for planning and measuring warehouse capacity requirements over the next 12 months to ensure that we have sufficient capacity to meet both internal and external delivery demands. This requires the ability to review data and spot trends consistently. You will produce high-quality information to steer logistics decisions at all levels.
You will support the team manager with 5-year capacity planning and collaborate with logistics senior management, presenting detailed data on operational plans.
Excellent communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively to achieve the best outcome are essential in this busy role. You must be highly organised, efficient, and determined to get the job done right, down to the very last detail.
You will also work closely with merchandising, demand planning, and forecasters on excess stock levels across our logistics distribution centres, as well as reviewing and measuring inbound workload and consulting with production and buying to help smooth out deliveries in peak weeks.
Experience within a logistics team, knowledge of warehouse management systems, and demonstrable experience of working with these in a logistics setting is a distinct advantage. Advanced Excel knowledge is essential.
