About the role

_{26th August, 2026}

About the Company:
Join a leading Australian manufacturer of precision-engineered components, supporting specialised Defence and Aerospace programs.

Job Title: Production Planner / Scheduler - Precision Machining
Location: Adelaide, SA
Salary: Competitive salary package
Work Set-up: Full-time | On-site

About the Role:
This is not a clerical scheduling position. This role owns the flow of work through a multi-machine CNC production environment.

You will take full responsibility for production planning and scheduling across turning, milling, and finishing work centres in a high-mix, low-volume aerospace manufacturing setting. The focus is on ensuring work moves efficiently through the factory, bottlenecks are managed proactively, and on-time delivery performance is consistently achieved.

Key Responsibilities:

Develop and maintain a finite production schedule across multiple CNC work centres
Manage capacity vs demand and proactively identify production bottlenecks
Release, prioritise, and sequence work to maintain strong on-time delivery (OTD) performance
Monitor and manage WIP, adjusting schedules in real time based on constraints
Collaborate closely with operations, quality, project teams, and leadership
Improve planning accuracy, lead times, and overall production flow
Drive continuous improvement in scheduling systems and production responsiveness
Support decision-making that balances cost, efficiency, and customer commitments

Qualifications:

Proven experience in production planning and scheduling within precision machining or advanced manufacturing involving CNC Milling and Lathe
Strong understanding of CNC environments, routing, setup times, and machine capacity constraints
Experience with ERP/MRP systems
Ability to make decisions under pressure and take ownership of delivery outcomes
Strong commercial awareness of how scheduling impacts cost, efficiency, and performance
Aerospace, defence, or AS9100 environment experience highly desirable
Strong communication skills and ability to work across multiple operational stakeholders

Perks and Benefits:

Competitive hourly rate
Supportive, encouraging, and inclusive team environment
Modern, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility
Strong Workplace Health & Safety focus
Monthly team lunches
Health and wellbeing initiatives
Ongoing training and career development opportunities
Opportunity to work on specialised Defence and Aerospace programs
