As part of a team of 9 Master Planners within the Supply Chain, you will direct the logistical aspects of our projects from the acquisition phase through to delivery. You are responsible for validating the feasibility of orders and projects, and in doing so, you assess and monitor the timely availability of materials, resources, and human capacity. To achieve this, you work closely with the S&OP team, Supply Chain Managers, Project Planners, Manufacturing Planners, Tactical Buyers, and various other colleagues within the sales, projects, manufacturing, and procurement organizations. Where necessary, you initiate measures to make the plan suitable.

You share responsibility for order acceptance within the Supply Chain, based on which you release the procurement and production plans and direct the Manufacturing Buyers and Manufacturing Planners. You monitor the progress of the plans, specifically the milestones to be achieved, and take corrective measures where necessary. In the event of deviations, you proactively inform the stakeholders. You are the first point of contact for (logistical) escalations and emergencies. You take improvement initiatives in order to raise the level of the supply chain as a whole and the planning discipline specifically.

• Validating and accepting new orders and projects
• Making the plan suitable and keeping it so.
• Continuous improvement of the planning processes and the relevant data for them.
• Creating overview for various stakeholders.
