Site Supply Chain Planner

As a Site Supply Chain Planner, you will be at the heart of our day-to-day operations, translating supply requirements into a stable, realistic and executable production schedule.

This is a hands-on planning role for someone who enjoys working close to operations. You will continuously balance production capacity, material availability, priorities and market demand, partnering with Production, QA, Warehouse and regional Supply Chain teams to keep supply moving.

If you enjoy detailed scheduling, solving operational planning challenges and improving the way planning is done, this could be the right opportunity for you.

What you will do

Your main responsibility will be to own and maintain the short-term detailed production schedule, ensuring that plans are feasible and aligned with available materials and capacity.

You will:

• Build, maintain and optimize the detailed production schedule for your assigned production lines.

• Own the frozen/firm planning window and ensure production orders are ready for execution.

• Assess short- and mid-term capacity and identify potential constraints before they impact supply.

• Check component and material availability and coordinate actions when shortages or constraints arise.

• Work closely with Production, QA, Warehouse and regional Supply Chain teams to align priorities and safeguard market supply.

• React quickly to deviations, flow stoppers and changing operational priorities, translating them into clear planning actions.

• Facilitate daily SQDIP discussions and weekly capacity meetings, providing visibility on risks, priorities and required actions.

• Support product launches and other operational initiatives with planning expertise.

• Monitor planning and supply KPIs, identify trends and recommend actions to improve performance.

• Contribute to continuous improvement, standardization and automation of planning processes.

Ultimately, you will be the person who connects the plan with operational reality—making sure that what we intend to produce can actually be executed.
