Who we’re looking for:
We’re looking for an intermediate level Maintenance Planner to join our all-star team. We’re looking for:
- A collaborative team player: You’re a collaborative force, seamlessly working within cross-functional teams and sharing knowledge to drive collective success. You have a proven ability to work both independently and as part of a team, and you’re a recognized contributor to a positive team environment. While you instill trust and encourage input from others, you’re also confident in voicing your ideas, taking the lead when needed, and ensuring the group stays focused on its goals.
- Someone who enjoys routine: You excel in structured settings, drawing on established processes and regular habits to consistently deliver quality results. Your organized approach offers stability to your team and helps keep operations on track.
- A problem solver who gets how things connect: You’re someone who dives into data, breaking down complex problems, and finds logical, efficient solutions. You’re the type of person who thinks in systems - seeing the big picture while making sure all the moving parts fit together smoothly. You naturally connect the dots, anticipate challenges, and find the best way through.
- An innovator: You blend technical expertise with a passion for creative problem-solving, always seeking out proactive and inventive solutions to challenges as they arise.
- Flexible mindset: You’re curious and flexible - the Swiss Army knife of capabilities. You thrive in situations where there isn’t always a playbook and love coming up with creative ways to tackle challenges.
