Job Description
Production Planner | 4 on 4 off Days (6am–6pm) | Norfolk | £35,000–£38,000
We're working with a world-leading, blue-chip food manufacturer supplying major UK retailers in a fast-moving, short shelf-life category. Known for quality, innovation, and operational excellence, this business offers a genuinely impressive environment for ambitious planners who want to make an impact.
This is a key Production Planner role at the heart of a high-volume operation. You'll own the day-to-day production plan, ensuring customer demand is met efficiently while balancing capacity, materials, and stock in a complex manufacturing setting.
Working closely with Operations, Procurement, Technical, and Warehouse teams, you'll turn forecasts into achievable schedules, react quickly to change, and keep production flowing smoothly. Your decisions will directly influence service levels, waste reduction, and overall site performance.
You'll be joining a business that values data-driven decision-making, strong communication, and continuous improvement. If you enjoy a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same, this role offers real autonomy and responsibility.
In return, you'll benefit from a competitive salary, excellent benefits, and the opportunity to develop your career within a globally recognised food manufacturer that invests in its people.
If you're an experienced Production Planner or Supply Planner from a food or FMCG background and want to step into a role with visibility, ownership, and progression — this is an opportunity worth exploring.
