Job Description
Project & Manufacturing Planner | Nelson | £35,000 | Sugden Ltd
When projects fall behind, the problem usually started weeks earlier. Components not ordered, drawings still in progress, or the oversight of a potential delay.
Sugden Ltd, is part of the wider Baldwin Engineering Group who have experienced significant growth in recent years. As a result, they need a key player to contribute to the coordinating activities across projects, manufacturing, procurement and stores.
What you'll be doing
You'll build a clear picture of what needs to happen, when it needs to happen and what could prevent it from happening.
You'll be responsible for:
• Building and maintaining project and manufacturing timelines
• Creating and issuing manufacturing work orders
• Keeping MRP information accurate and aligned with what's happening in production
• Coordinating internal and subcontracted manufacturing, ensuring drawings, materials, and components are available when required.
But this isn't just about maintaining a plan. You'll be expected to look ahead, identify risks and give the wider team enough warning to do something about them.
That will include:
• Identifying material shortages, capacity issues, subcontractor delays and other risks
• Supporting procurement to keep materials and components on schedule
• Monitoring progress and highlighting where delivery dates could be affected
• Improving planning processes, Excel reporting and communication between departments
What you'll need
• Experience in production planning, project coordination or a similar role. Ideally in a manufacturing or engineering environment.
• Good knowledge of MRP systems and some exposure to purchasing/procurement
• Strong Excel skills and excellent attention to detail
• The ability to manage priorities, identify risks and confidently chase information
Experience reading engineering drawings, Progress Plus or a project/planning qualification would be useful but isn't essential.
