The role

Are you motivated by being at the heart of industrial manufacturing? Are you someone who enjoys turning plant variability into a smooth, efficient flow?

At Pardo, we are constantly evolving and we are looking to bring a Production Planner into our Operations and Planning team, someone who wants to take on a key role in industrial coordination, bringing analytical vision and drive.

You won't just be a simple manager of manufacturing orders. You will be the engine that connects Operations, Production, and Supply, anticipating issues and ensuring every order is delivered on time and to the quality standards that define us.

What you'll do

  • Strategic factory planning: You will manage production capacity, resource allocation, priorities, and strict deadline compliance.

  • Cross-functional coordination: You will be the link between Production and Supply to ensure a constant flow of materials and manufacturing without bottlenecks.

  • Agility and decision-making: You will quickly re-plan in response to changing priorities, issues, or capacity constraints in highly variable environments (Make to Order).

  • Analysis and KPIs: You will use data to monitor KPIs, optimize inventory levels, and propose improvements in productivity.

We are looking for someone with a strong analytical foundation, pragmatic communication skills, and a real desire to add value in an industrial environment.
