Pure Resourcing Solutions is working with a specialist engineering and manufacturing business to recruit a Production Project Planner.
You’ll be working within a low-volume, high-value environment, planning complex engineered products and projects where lead times, material availability, supplier performance and manufacturing capacity all need to come together at the right time.
You’ll take ownership of planning from customer requirement through to delivery, working closely with Engineering, Procurement, Production and Operations to keep projects on track.
Key Responsibilities
Develop and manage production plans for low-volume, high-value projects and builds.
Translate customer requirements and project milestones into achievable manufacturing schedules.
Plan materials, components and outsourced services against project requirements and lead times.
Identify potential material, supplier and capacity constraints early and drive appropriate actions.
Coordinate closely with Engineering, Procurement, Production and Operations throughout the build lifecycle.
Monitor progress against planned dates, highlighting risks, delays and changing priorities.
Use MRP/ERP systems to maintain accurate planning information and material requirements.
Support improvements to planning processes, visibility and overall delivery performance.
About You
Experienced in production, manufacturing or supply chain planning within an engineering-led environment.
Ideally experienced with low-volume, high-value, project-based or complex engineered products.
Comfortable planning around long lead-time materials, changing priorities and engineering requirements.
Strong understanding of MRP/ERP systems, material planning and production capacity.
Commercially aware with strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
Confident working across Engineering, Procurement, Operations and senior stakeholders.
