Key skills for this role
Be the person who keeps our Engineering team moving.
At Valeo Foods UK, our Norwich site is home to one of the nation’s favourite snacks – kettle chips ! Behind every bag is a busy factory, a brilliant team and a whole lot of engineering that keeps everything running safely, efficiently and reliably.
We’re looking for an Engineering Planner to join our Engineering team and become the linchpin that keeps the department organised, prepared and one step ahead.
This is a role where planning, organisation and coordination are everything . You’ll bring together planned maintenance, engineering activity, contractors, compliance and day-to-day priorities to make sure the right work happens at the right time.
An engineering background would be a fantastic bonus, but it isn’t essential . What really matters is that you’re an excellent planner who can organise activity, manage competing priorities and make things happen.
What will you be doing?
You’ll play a central role in keeping our Engineering department on track, including:
Managing and coordinating the site’s planned preventative maintenance (PPM) schedules
Planning and coordinating third-party contractors and engineering works
Managing the day-to-day engineering plan and ensuring planned work is delivered effectively
Coordinating engineering activities with production and other departments to minimise disruption
Supporting engineering compliance and audit requirements
Working closely with the Engineering team to ensure maintenance activities are planned, scheduled and completed
Supporting food safety compliance and ensuring engineering activities meet site standards
Maintaining accurate records and ensuring actions and planned works are followed through
Using SHIRE PARANHA as part of the engineering planning process
