We’re recruiting on behalf of a well-established and highly successful engineering design and manufacturing business that delivers complex, bespoke products into a demanding industrial environment.

This is an excellent opportunity for a mechanically minded Production Planner or Junior Manufacturing Engineer to join a fast‑paced operation where no two builds are the same.

Unlike high‑volume production environments, this role involves coordinating low‑volume, high‑complexity manufacturing, requiring strong problem‑solving, technical understanding, and close collaboration with engineering and production teams.

The Role of Production Engineer - Planning & Coordination
You’ll play a key role in ensuring the smooth flow of materials, labour, and work through the manufacturing process.

Plan and coordinate the flow of materials and labour across fabrication, machining, and assembly areas

Create and manage work orders, Bills of Materials (BOMs), and production routes from engineering drawings and project requirements

Develop and maintain daily and weekly production schedules, adapting to changing priorities

Work closely with engineering, production, and stores teams to resolve technical and build‑related challenges

Ensure all production systems (MRP/ERP) are accurately maintained and updated

Support efficient stock control and material availability across the business

Contribute to continuous improvement, workflow efficiency, and on‑time delivery

The Role of Production Engineer - Planning & Coordination is ideal for someone with a background in mechanical or manufacturing engineering who enjoys working in a technically challenging environment.

Experience within an engineering manufacturing or engineering environment

Understanding of production planning, scheduling, and MRP / ERP systems

Experience working with BOMs, work orders, or production documentation

Ability to interpret or work from engineering drawings or technical specifications (advantageous)

Knowledge of fabrication, machining, or assembly processes (beneficial)

Strong organisational and communication skills, with the ability to work cross‑functionally

This role is best suited to candidates with a

technical or engineering background . It is not a purely administrative or non‑technical coordination position.

Do you want to:

Work on

complex, bespoke engineering projects

– not repetitive production

Gain exposure across

engineering, manufacturing, and operations

Develop your career within a

supportive and technically strong team

Be part of a business where your input has a

direct impact on production success
