About the company
Braintree Precision Components is a precision engineering manufacturer, part of the HEPCO Motion group. The business makes precision components for industrial customers, with a strong focus on quality and on-time delivery. The planning team sits at the centre of production, working directly with the shop floor to keep jobs moving and customer commitments met. The business is also partway through moving to Microsoft Business Central, making this a particularly good time to join.
The role
You will join a small planning team monitoring incoming sales demand and making sure the right stock is in the right place. Around 40% of your time is on the shop floor, progress-chasing batch cards and working with the production team. The rest is desk-based planning, scheduling, and system work. You’ll be central to keeping day-to-day operations running smoothly.
