We currently have an excellent and rarely available opportunity for a Volume Planner to join our Bellshill site, to provide a Phased Production Plan to the Supply Control Team by converting the Ex-Factory Shipment Forecast into an executable Phased Production Plan. Develop this plan taking into account stock types and stockholding policies, working with known constraints (e.g. line capacities, shift profiles, line manning standards, stock policy, material shortages), and overall to achieve the optimal Company outcome in terms of staffing requirements, efficiencies and costs

**Main Responsibility**:

- Lead the alignment of the Phased Production Plan on a monthly basis as part of the S&OP cycle, covering to end of calendar year (week 1-3 already sequenced) and propose the best plan for the medium to long term utilising the solver functionality in the advanced planning & scheduling system. Prepare and analyse different scenarios and present recommended options for Supply Team agreement.
- Work closely with key stakeholders across Customer services, forecasting, bottling, finance, purchasing and other relevant areas to reach alignment on lead option(s) to present for OBU Exec sign-off (with summary paper and relevant explanations).
- Monitor adherence to plan, including regular review of stock coverage vs plan and provide additional input as required on an on-going basis.
- Active participation in Daily Operating Rhythm meeting to manage impact of changes to agreed plan.
- Monitor delivery and cost performance versus original budget and versus a flexed budget so as to optimise efficiencies and costs for the Company over the medium-term
- Review ex-factory monthly shipment forecast update via Demand Planning monthly planning cycle - ensuring clear understanding of what has changed and why, to be able to plan impact on phased production plan changes vs previous cycle.
- Adhere to working day calendar, ensuring that analysis is complete and the recommended option is ready on the target date, so as to enable Material Control and Purchasing to assess and confirm supplier capacity.
- Adhere to volume planning process, stock management policies (e.g., for bulk stock, campaign stock, etc.) as well as other principles and guidelines, identifying contingency plans to cope with variability and allow for some flexibility if need emerges.
- Maintain clear up to date process documentation for Volume Planning, and maintain historical records of process changes.
- Participate and contribute to team performance by engaging in team meetings and taking an active part in problem solving activities.
- Work collaboratively with peers and colleagues and
