• As a Capacity Planner, you release capacity to colleagues to carry out tasks and projects!
• You work closely with engineers, supervisors, and other capacity planners!
• You can count on good employment conditions such as hybrid working, a good salary, and opportunities for growth.

As a capacity planner, you will work for the Work Force Management (WFM) department and will be busy on a daily basis making the project planning for the Engineering and Construction department as optimal as possible. When drawing up the operational planning, you take various variables into account to deploy all available capacity as efficiently as possible. Your primary task is to ensure that projects move through the design chain as quickly as possible. In doing so, you maintain visibility on the projects, where they stand in terms of time, monitor progress, and conduct planning meetings. You plan projects for next month, next quarter, or next year.

To maintain control, you are in frequent contact with customers, engineers, and supervisors, but you are also a sparring partner for the team manager. You know the people you work with, you have regular consultations, and you seek out dialogue. You know when you can scale up through the conversations you hold, but you also sense when the pressure becomes too high and you must scale down. Being connected with your colleagues is essential in this role.

• Providing accurate planning.
• Good communication both internally and externally.
• Monitoring progress.
• Continuously switching/prioritizing between planned work and disruptions in the planning.
• Managing the planning; you determine which projects must be picked up first.
