Description:
Production Planner
Copello is working with a leading engineering and manufacturing organisation to recruit a Production Planner for their operations team in County Durham.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Production Planner to play a key role in coordinating manufacturing activity and ensuring production plans support customer requirements and business priorities.
Working closely with teams across Production, Engineering and Supply Chain, you will be responsible for developing and maintaining realistic production schedules, balancing demand, material availability and manufacturing capacity. You will monitor progress, identify potential risks to delivery and help ensure an efficient flow of work through production.
What we're looking for
We are interested in candidates with experience in production planning, manufacturing planning, scheduling, materials control or supply chain planning within a manufacturing or engineering environment.
You should have experience of:
Developing and maintaining production plans and schedules
Working with ERP/MRP systems and production planning data
Capacity planning, material availability and work-in-progress management
Coordinating with multiple teams to manage priorities and delivery requirements
Identifying risks and resolving issues that could impact production schedules
Ensuring our clients expectations are met and all manufacturing projects are delivered on time, to the high standard we expect.
Strong Excel skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment will also be beneficial.
Experience within electronics, aerospace, defence, high-reliability manufacturing or another complex engineering environment would be advantageous, although candidates from a wider manufacturing background are encouraged to apply.
Role is on site, flexibility on hours can be negotiated, strong benefits package and the opportunity to develop significantly. Candidates must undergo a 3 year background check and hold full right to work in the UK.
If you're an organised and proactive Production Planner looking for your next opportunity, I'd love to hear from you
