PLANNER LINCOLNSHIRE CONTINENTAL SHIFT (2s & 3s, 05:00 START) Lets keep this simple. If youre the kind of planner who actually owns the plan, not just updates a spreadsheet, this will be right up your street. This is a fast-moving FMCG environment. Things change. Orders move. Priorities shift. Youll need to stay ahead of it, not chase it. Youll be at the centre of the operation. Working with Ops, Procurement, Logistics, making sure the plan is realistic, understood, and delivered. What youll be doing Building daily production plans that actually work on the shop floor Keeping plans live and relevant as orders come in (EDI-driven) Speaking to Ops - properly - so changes land and get executed Checking short-term feasibility with Procurement before anything is signed off Flagging risks early (not when its already gone wrong) Keeping the planning horizon clean and under control Supporting new product launches with practical, workable schedules Stepping in when the team needs you - no silos here What matters You can think ahead, not just react Youre comfortable making decisions without waiting to be told You understand how production actually works Youre strong on Excel (youll need it) You can communicate clearly - especially when things arent going to plan Useful background (not essential) FMCG or manufacturing experience SAP or similar systems Scheduling / forecasting exposure The setup Continental shift pattern (2 on / 2 off / 3 on) Early starts (05:00) - this is operational planning, not a 9-5 desk job Why look at this? Proper responsibility - youll see the impact of what you do A business where planning actually matters Solid package, development, and long-term opportunity If you like solving problems, keeping things moving, and being the person who keeps production on track contact for a confidential chat
