Production Planner / Production Planning Administrator
Goole, East Riding of Yorkshire | £31,200 – £33,150 per annum | Permanent | Full-time | On-site
The Role
As a Production Planning Administrator, you’ll play a key part in ensuring that customer orders are scheduled accurately and efficiently, while keeping our machines running at their best. You’ll juggle deadlines, machine capabilities, stock levels, and changing priorities – all while staying composed and focused. This is a fast-paced, problem-solving role where resilience and a steady head make all the difference.
Key Responsibilities
- Effective Scheduling & Planning – Create and manage daily and weekly production plans. Ensure jobs are sequenced correctly for efficiency, quality, and minimal downtime. Work closely with production, sales, and customer service teams to adapt plans as priorities shift.
- Customer Service & Delivery Performance – Monitor order progress and support high service levels. Flag issues early and help keep communication clear and proactive.
- Data & Accuracy – Maintain precise planning data and ensure systems reflect real-time status. Review job tickets, specs, and machine capabilities to avoid errors.
- Problem Solving & Resilience – Respond calmly when challenges arise – machine breakdowns, urgent orders, last‑minute changes. Help find practical solutions that keep production on track.
What They Are Looking For
- Experience in production planning or scheduling (manufacturing or corrugated is a bonus).
- Strong organisational skills with excellent attention to detail.
- Calm, steady, and reliable under pressure – able to prioritise and adapt quickly.
- Comfortable working with data, production systems, and fast-moving information.
- A team player who communicates clearly and works well across departments.
