Are you a positive teamplayer with attention to details? Would you like to develop in a challenging team setting? We are currently looking for a Project Planner to organize and track the material purchases and production schedules for products within the Defense sector.

The Role

As a Project Planner, you will be a central part of the interface between Engineering, Purchasing, Project Management, and Production.

You will also be responsible for managing Change Orders and assessing their impact on the project schedule. You will handle material shortages or production bottlenecks and implement necessary actions.

You are a structured and organized individual who pays close attention to detail, which is essential for managing intersecting timelines. You enjoy working in a dynamic, cross-functional environment and have strong communication skills to effectively collaborate with various stakeholders across the business. You are a reliable self-starter who takes ownership of your responsibilities and can independently drive your work forward.

We deliver expertise in product development, UX, industrial IT, embedded systems, production technology, and project management.
