Production Planner Continuous Improvement
4 weeks ago
Reporting to the Production Planning Manager, the primary role of the Production Planner (Continuous Improvement) is to lead, plan and execute on value-added initiatives for the Planning department. The Production Planner will be asked to complete projects that are directly or indirectly in line with improving the efficiency or effectiveness of processes or procedures that impact our planning objectives and KPIs. This role involves close collaboration with 5-6 Production Planners, 2-3 Distribution Planners, their managers as well as key stakeholders in other departments. The Project Manager will also be asked to backup planners who are away, sick, on vacation etc. and may even be asked to directly manage specific planning processes and analysis for certain plants on a regular basis.

A Day in the Life
Your day starts with a great opportunity to chat with your colleagues over the coffee machine. Once the chat is over, depending on your priorities, you focus on moving your projects forward so that they are delivered on time and implemented as soon as possible. Constantly on the lookout for optimizations, you spend a lot of time communicating with members of the planning team as well as members of cross-functional teams to gather information relevant to the progress of your projects. During the day, you regularly check your e-mails and take certain actions according to the information communicated. Actions may vary from day to day, and you may be called upon to investigate malfunctions with planning tools, to take note of certain potential optimizations, to support a planner in his or her "day to day" and to respond to any other related requests. Your day ends with plenty of great ideas to start your next working day, and a strong sense of accomplishment.
