As a key part of the Production Operations team, you'll create impact by driving on-time delivery performance through proactive scheduling, cross-functional coordination, and data-driven decision-making that keeps our production lines running at peak efficiency.

Your main responsibilities include:

  • Drive execution of production orders across the APU by coordinating cross-functionally, dynamically adjusting schedules, and tracking completion progress to ensure timely delivery of critical projects and key orders
  • Proactively identify and forecast risks to order fulfillment, coordinating with relevant departments to develop and implement solutions
  • Manage daily order release, execution tracking, exception reporting, and consolidation of APU operational data and work reporting metrics
  • Support production supervisors and managers in analyzing execution deviations, productivity trends, and recommending improvement actions

What makes you a great fit

Above all, you're a proactive, detail-oriented scheduling professional with strong analytical capabilities, excellent cross-functional communication skills, and a proven ability to keep production on track in a dynamic manufacturing environment. We'd also imagine that you are/have:

  • Bachelor's degree or above with experience in production scheduling or planning in a manufacturing environment
  • Proficiency in SAP/ERP systems for production order management and scheduling
  • Strong Excel skills with clear logical thinking and the ability to independently complete data analysis and reporting
  • Good cross-functional communication skills with a strong sense of responsibility and willingness to take on challenges

It's a plus if you also:

  • Familiarity with production processes and shop floor operations
  • Working knowledge of English for reading emails and basic communication with international stakeholders
  • Experience with capacity planning and bottleneck management in assembly or production environments

Why you'll love working here

Day to day, you can look forward to:

  • A supportive flexible working environment
  • Annual bonuses, health insurance and a strong focus on well-being activities.
  • Three days' additional paid leave for volunteering.
  • On-demand training and structured development programmes to support your growth.

Valuing our differences helps us see possibilities where others can't. We therefore welcome and encourage applications from all abilities, experiences, and backgrounds. As part of our commitment to a safe and compliant hiring process, final candidates may be required to undergo a background check, subject to applicable local laws and regulations.
