Maintenance Planner

Are you ready to play a pivotal role in keeping a 24/7 operation running at its best? As our Maintenance Planner, you’ll be the organizing force behind all maintenance activities—ensuring that preventive, corrective, and urgent repairs are scheduled, resourced, and executed for seamless performance. You’ll collaborate with technicians, engineers, vendors, and contractors to minimize downtime and ensure critical equipment is always ready for action.

In this position, you’ll manage our computerized maintenance management system (CMMS), ensure records are accurate and up to date, and oversee spare parts inventory and equipment calibration. You’ll coordinate with procurement, support audits, and play a key part in driving safety, quality, and compliance across our facility. Your analytical skills will help identify trends, optimize processes, and support data-driven decision-making. You’ll also play a key role in communicating with cross-functional teams and facilitating alignment on maintenance priorities.

You will also have proven experience planning and scheduling maintenance activities in a fast-paced environment, ideally with a background in CMMS or similar systems. Strong organizational and communication skills are essential, as you’ll coordinate across diverse teams, lead change management and change control processes, and ensure all maintenance activities meet regulatory and quality standards. You’ll manage operational budgets, proactively identifying and resolving issues, and maintaining thorough documentation. You’ll drive continuous improvement, work independently, and foster a culture of safety, reliability, and accountability. A collaborative mindset, adaptability, and a commitment to both operational excellence and responsible budget stewardship are key to making a real impact here.
