Job Description
Senior Production Planner (3-6 Month FTC)
Food Manufacturing
Lancashire | £40,000 - £50,000
Some planning jobs are about keeping things ticking over.
This isn't one of them.
The business is heading into one of its busiest periods of the year and needs an experienced Production Planner who can come in, quickly understand the operation and take ownership of the production plan from day one.
This isn't a role for someone who needs months to find their feet. They're looking for someone who's done this before. Someone who can make good decisions, react to changing priorities and keep production moving without needing their hand held.
You'll be responsible for production planning across a busy food manufacturing operation, working closely with Supply Chain, Operations and the wider manufacturing team to ensure the plan is achievable and the factory has what it needs, when it needs it.
Planning is managed through established Excel-based processes, so you'll need to be comfortable building, maintaining and adapting production plans without relying on sophisticated planning software.
If you've also got materials planning experience, even better.
What they're looking for:
Production planning experience within food manufacturing.
Able to hit the ground running with minimal supervision.
Strong Excel skills and confidence managing production plans.
Comfortable working in a fast-paced manufacturing environment where priorities can change quickly.
Knowledge of materials planning would be an advantage.
Someone who enjoys taking ownership and making the role their own.
The details:
3-6 month fixed-term contract.
£40,000-£50,000 depending on experience.
Lancashire.
Monday-Friday on site - days.
It's a role where you'll make an impact from the start. If you're an experienced Production Planner who enjoys solving problems, building robust plans and keeping production on track, I'd be keen to have a chat
