Production Planner

Location: Burnley, UK

Department: Production – Planning

The Role :

We're looking for a Production Planner to take the lead in ensuring that production meets customer demand efficiently and reliably. You'll manage production schedules, coordinate materials, and play a key role in shaping the way the business operates — especially as the company continues to embed SAP S/4 HANA across its processes.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and maintain production plans based on sales forecasts, capacity, and inventory levels.
  • Monitor and adjust schedules to ensure smooth production flow and timely delivery. Prepare regular production reports and performance updates.
  • Coordinate the introduction of new production programs, ensuring alignment across teams.
  • Maintain optimal inventory levels and support cost control initiatives.
  • Oversee material imports in line with forecasted sales volumes.
  • Collaborate with internal teams including order planning, materials, warehouse, sales, and production teams to ensure production targets are met.

Key Performance Indicators:

  • Achievement of production plan targets.
  • Maintenance of sufficient inventory levels.
  • Zero production downtime due to planning or material shortages.

What We're Looking For:

  • Strong experience with SAP (S/4 HANA preferred), Q-Flow, or other MRP systems. Proficient in Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook), with strong Excel skills (pivots, ETL, reporting).
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment with short lead times.
  • Excellent organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills.
  • Proactive approach — you'll be driving process improvements and taking ownership of results.

Why You'll Love Working Here:

  • Be part of a global, innovative company with a supportive, family-owned culture. Opportunity to shape processes and systems as SAP continues to be embedded.
  • Fast-paced, varied role where no two days are the same.
  • Clear career progression
  • Competitive salary, benefits, and flexible working options.

Job Types: Full-time, Permanent

Pay: £30,000.00-£35,000.00 per year

Benefits:
