Open the Door to Your Next Career Move

Production Planner | Lorient - Newton Abbot

Are you an experienced Production Planner with a passion for supply chain excellence and continuous improvement? Do you thrive in a fast-paced manufacturing environment where your planning expertise directly impacts customer satisfaction and business performance?

Join a global leader in access solutions and become part of a collaborative team that plays a critical role in delivering world-class products to customers worldwide.

What You'll Be Doing

As our Production Planner, you'll be at the heart of our supply chain operations, ensuring products are available when customers need them while driving efficiencies across the business.

Key responsibilities include:

Managing and developing supplier relationships and existing supply chains.
Using MRP data and forecasting tools to optimise inventory availability and improve OTIF performance.
Analysing demand forecasts to support accurate purchase order placement.
Working closely with Sales, Operations, Product Management, Customer Service and Quality teams to ensure seamless supply chain performance.
Monitoring supplier delivery performance and proactively expediting orders where required.
Recommending stock strategies and supplier-held inventory levels to enhance lead times and customer service.
Identifying alternative sourcing opportunities and supporting supplier negotiations.
Coordinating inbound shipments with freight forwarders across sea, air and road transport.
Maintaining accurate product and planning data within Microsoft AX and Syspro.
Producing insightful supply chain reports and analysis for management.
Contributing to the S&OP process to support business growth and operational efficiency.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for an organised, analytical, and proactive planner who enjoys solving challenges and building strong working relationships.

You'll ideally have:

Previous experience in Production Planning, Supply Planning, Inventory Planning or Supply Chain Management.
Proven experience managing inventory availability across multiple SKUs and suppliers.
Strong knowledge of MRP and ERP systems, particularly Microsoft AX and/or Syspro.
Experience working with international suppliers and managing complex supply chains.
Understanding of imports, freight forwarding, and Incoterms.
Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with a keen eye for detail.
The ability to manage competing priorities and perform effectively under pressure.
A continuous improvement mindset and commitment to personal development.

Why Join Us?

This is an opportunity to make a real impact within an innovative, international business. You'll work alongside experienced professionals, gain exposure to global supply chain operations, and play a key role in improving service, efficiency, and customer experience.

Whether you're looking to further develop your planning career or take the next step within a dynamic manufacturing environment, we'd love to hear from you.

Ready to Take the Next Step?

We review applications on an ongoing basis, so don't miss out. Apply today and help shape the future of our supply chain.

We are committed to building diverse and inclusive teams and welcome applications from everyone who can see themselves succeeding in this role.

We are the ASSA ABLOY Group

With nearly 63,000 colleagues in more than 70 different countries, we help billions of people experience a more open world.

As an employer, we value results – not titles, or backgrounds. We empower our people to build their career around their aspirations and our ambitions – supporting them with regular feedback, training, and development opportunities. Our colleagues think broadly about where they can make the most impact, and we encourage them to grow their role locally, regionally, or even internationally.

As we welcome new people on board, it’s important to us to have diverse, inclusive teams, and we value different perspectives and experiences.
