**What you’ll be doing**

As the Resource & Scheduling Planner you will be part of a busy team and have responsibility for day to day scheduling of resource on our electronic planning system, DRS, for repairs & maintenance operatives.

You will be an expert in your area whilst having transferrable working knowledge to other areas to create flexibility and maintain a high level of service at all times.

You’ll work jointly with Contracts Managers, Supervisors and Team Leaders to ensure all operational resources are used in the most flexible and efficient way to maximise productivity.

**About you**

We’re looking for someone who has a positive approach, alongside being dynamic and enthusiastic. Having previous experience in planning/diary management will be a great advantage. You’ll be confident working collaboratively as part of a team, whilst also happy to work on your own initiative.

If you believe you are resilient and versatile and suit working in a changing environment, this role could be for you.

You’ll be happy to work at pace and virtually from home. You may be required to travel across our operating region for meetings and training from time to time.
