Job description

Production Planner

Luton | Full-time | 4 on, 4 off day shifts

15% bonus

• 7% pension
• Staff travel benefits

We support hybrid working, and you’ll spend 60% of your time each month in the office.

The opportunity

As a Production Planner in our Engineering and Maintenance team, you’ll plan the daily workload and scheduled maintenance requirements within easyJet’s Part 145 organisation.

You’ll match available people and resources to the work that needs to be completed, helping the maintenance team deliver safely, on schedule and with strong productivity. This is a full-time Luton role working 12-hour day shifts on a 4 on, 4 off pattern.

\"This role is about seeing the whole picture before the shift begins. We're looking for someone who can build a workable maintenance plan, spot what could hold it up and bring teams together to keep aircraft work moving safely and on time.\"

The team & culture

You’ll be part of easyJet’s Engineering and Maintenance team, working closely with maintenance colleagues, Stores and operational stakeholders. It's a practical, fast-moving environment where clear communication, ownership and attention to detail all matter.

You’ll also help create a positive team environment by recognising good work, supporting engagement and looking for better ways to plan and deliver maintenance.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll review scheduled work packages each day and coordinate the people needed to complete them successfully. You’ll keep the plan realistic, monitor progress and help ensure planned maintenance is carried out as scheduled.

You’ll make sure the right tooling and equipment are available, and coordinate with Stores so the aircraft parts and materials needed for the work are ready when required.

You’ll monitor unscheduled maintenance requirements, including MEL and CDL operational procedures, and adapt the plan when priorities change.

You’ll help maintain high standards of control and compliance by ensuring technical logs, work packages and supporting paperwork are completed accurately, while identifying and implementing improvements within the department.

What We’re Looking For

You’ll bring demonstrable experience of effective maintenance planning, with the organisation and judgement to balance scheduled work, available resources and changing operational needs.

You’ll be comfortable working independently and as part of a team. You can communicate clearly face to face, build constructive relationships and manage stakeholders with confidence.

You’ll be flexible, motivated and committed to continuous improvement, with strong written communication and interpersonal skills.

You’ll be proficient in Microsoft Word and Excel. Knowledge of AMOS is desirable, rather than essential.

What You’ll Get

• Competitive base salary
• Industry leading Shift Allowance
• Up to 15% Annual bonus
• 25 days holiday
• BAYE, SAYE & Performance share schemes
• 7% pension
• Life Assurance
• Flexible benefits package
• Excellent staff travel benefits

Diversity Isn't a Checkbox - It's How We Fly

The best maintenance plans are stronger when different perspectives are part of the thinking. We welcome people from every background who can bring sound judgement, practical ideas and a collaborative approach to keeping our operation safe and reliable.
