• Create and maintain output plans which are aligned with supply chain commitments to schedule and prioritise work through the value stream.

• Create, review and report on, the performance of the area, in terms of Cost, Delivery and Headcount.
• Work closely with relevant stakeholders to ensure plans are achieved and the business operates smoothly. Be the voice of operations into other areas of the business (i.e., Programmes, procurement, and shipping) to ensure output and input plans are aligned and delivered on time. 

   

Position qualifications:

• Strong planning and prioritisation skills with a high attention to detail and a self -directed approach to ensuring the execution of key business deliverables.
• You will have a reasonable level of knowledge and experience of SAP, Microsoft Office tools and a willingness to learn new tools & techniques
• A team player who can work in a fast-paced operations environment and is prepared to support others in achieving and owning a common goal.
• Networking across business groups and developing key relationships is critical to this role and therefore you will have strong interpersonal and leadership skills with the ability to easily build rapport within all levels of the organisation.
• Highly organised with the ability to change pace and direction in response to emergent issues, remain calm under changing circumstances and deal positively with uncertainty and ambiguity.

Please be aware that the priority will be given to employees identified as being at high risk. 

 

The professional level and the salary of the position will be dependent on the skills and experience of the successful candidate. 

 

It is advised that you inform your current manager of your application for this role.
