The Opportunity- Material Planner

About the role:

We’re looking for a proactive and highly organised Material Planner to join the JCB Transmissions team. You’ll play a critical role in ensuring the consistent and efficient flow of materials into our transmission manufacturing operations. Working closely with internal stakeholders and a global supplier base, you’ll help support production schedules in a fast‑paced, high‑quality engineering environment. This role requires strong planning capability, attention to detail, excellent communication skills, and a continuous‑improvement mindset.

What does this role involve day to day?

Managing Material Requirements Planning (MRP) from an international supply base, aligned to transmission production schedules and engineering changes
Ensuring continuity of supply for all components required for transmission assembly and manufacturing
Monitoring supplier performance against agreed schedules and addressing any supply risks or deviations
Managing inventory by maintaining MRP parameters, reviewing stock levels against budget, and ensuring transactional accuracy
Driving proactive reviews and continuous improvement across suppliers, logistics, transport, and packaging solutions
Maintaining performance standards in line with agreed KPIs
Leading or supporting problem‑solving activities and process improvement initiatives within the supply chain

This will be suited to you if…

You have demonstrable experience in materials planning, ideally within a manufacturing or engineering environment
You have strong working knowledge of SAP or similar production planning systems
You’re a confident communicator, comfortable working with suppliers and cross‑functional internal teams
You’re highly PC‑literate and confident working with complex data and reporting tools
You’re organised, detail‑driven, and able to manage multiple priorities effectively
You thrive under pressure, enjoy solving problems, and can work to tight deadlines
You’re motivated by delivering results and driving continuous improvement

What happens next?

Ordinarily, our Resourcing Team reviews and shortlists CVs. If shortlisted, you’ll speak to one of our Recruiters to discuss the role further. Our interview process usually consists of an initial team’s interview followed by an in-person interview. We’ll keep in touch throughout the process but if you have any questions, please get in touch at [email protected]

What’s in it for you?

This is your chance to join a company that values expertise not only in rewards but also in real employee care. At JCB you don’t just get a competitive salary, 33 days’ holiday and access to our company pension—you can also use our onsite gym, in-house doctor and dentist. We have an ULEV car scheme available for our employees too. Then there’s the JCB Rewards Hub, which gives you discounts with high street retailers. Feel like biking to work? There’s our Cycle to Work Scheme.

We value diversity and welcome applications from candidates from all backgrounds.

We’re committed to ensuring our recruitment process is fair and inclusive. If you face any accessibility challenges with your online application and require additional support, you have the option of speaking to a member of our Recruitment Team who can support you to complete an application in an alternative format. If you would benefit from this support, please email [email protected], and a member of the team will be in touch.
