Job description

Will you help keep our client’s processes running smoothly? As a planner at Workstead, you are at the heart of the operation and you schedule temporary workers as efficiently as possible. This job is dynamic and ad hoc, which means that no two days are the same. You have a healthy dose of stress resistance and enjoy the challenge of ensuring that the personnel planning fits together well every day.

You think about the most suitable solution and know better than anyone how to deal with busy periods at the client’s site. You have analytical thinking skills and know how to make the right decisions, taking into account demand and customer satisfaction. Because you have made the schedule, know exactly what the customer needs, and speak the language of our employees, you can easily help them with questions or adjustments to the schedule.

In addition to the tasks discussed above, you will regularly visit our customers, either alone or with someone from your team. You will evaluate the previous period with them, discuss the pool of temporary workers, and look ahead to what is possible/expected. You do all this to build a lasting relationship with the customer; you are the point of contact for the customers. The customers know that you keep your promises, and with your service-oriented approach, they know that the team will do their utmost to contribute to this.

In short:

a varied position in which you will work as a planner, but also have the opportunity to showcase your social and commercial skills. You will be working in a team of intermediaries and job coaches of various nationalities.

As a planner, you are flexible, decisive, and feel responsible for ensuring that everything related to our planning is arranged down to the last detail. You are knowledgeable, both with regard to the customer and our employees. You also recognize yourself in the following points:

• You have experience as a planner;
• You are customer-oriented and able to work independently;
• You have strong communication skills and are confident;
• You have experience in the temporary employment sector (preferred);
• Fluency in Polish (spoken and written) is required;
• You have a good command of English (spoken and written);
• You are available full-time;
• You are also available periodically on weekends.

What we offer

• A position for 32 to 40 hours per week;
• A job with the prospect of permanent employment;
• Salary between €2.500 and €3.500 gross per month based on full-time employment and depending on your experience;
• Laptop and phone;
• Enthusiastic, professional colleagues and fun staff outings;
• Plenty of room and freedom for your development;
