We are working with a pioneering engineering organisation at the forefront of electrification and sustainable technology innovation. With a mission to drive the future of zero-emissions transport and power systems, they are delivering ground-breaking hardware development programmes – from early-stage R&D through to prototype, validation, and small-batch production.
As part of their continued growth, an opportunity has opened for a skilled Programme Planner to play a key role in coordinating planning and scheduling activity across a complex, multi-disciplinary development programme.

* Deliver high-quality planning outputs – including Gantt charts, critical path analysis, and scenario modelling
* Support both agile and traditional delivery frameworks in a fast-paced, high-change environment
* Provide planning insights and reports to help guide strategic decision-making at programme level
What You’ll Bring:
* Demonstrable experience in planning roles within hardware, engineering, or complex product development settings
* Proficiency in tools such as Primavera P6 and MS Project
* Familiarity with the full product development lifecycle – from concept through systems engineering, design, validation, and into manufacturing
* Ability to collaborate across disciplines (electrical, mechanical, software, supply chain, etc.)
* Detail-focused and analytically strong, with excellent stakeholder engagement and communication skills
Project Environment:
You’ll be part of a high-calibre team focused on delivering real-world impact through innovative technologies. Programmes are fast-moving, collaborative, and deeply rooted in sustainability and technical excellence.
