Alfa Laval is looking for a Production Planner GCC (Temp)

Every day, we get opportunities to make a positive impact – on our colleagues, partners, customers and society. Together, we’re pioneering the solutions of the future and unlocking the full potential of precious resources. Trusted to act on initiative, we challenge conventional thinking to develop world-leading technologies that inspire progress in vital areas, including energy, food, water and shipping. 

As we push forward, the innovative, open spirit that fuels our 140-year-old start-up culture and rapid growth also drives our personal growth. So, as we shape a more resourceful, less wasteful world, we build our careers too.​

About the Job

As a Production Planner, you’ll help transform and align our production planning strategy — securing accuracy, efficiency, and communication across the supply chain. You’ll be responsible for creating reliable production plans, reducing lead times, and ensuring our ERP system is kept up to date. Your work directly supports manufacturing, order handling, and supplier coordination.

This is a 14-month temporary position, where you’ll play a key role in maintaining stability while driving change.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and manage production plans based on sales orders and production capacity
• Optimize resource usage to ensure timely delivery and cost efficiency
• Ensure accurate and consistent data in our ERP system
• Collaborating with production, order handling, and purchasing teams
• Maintain communication with suppliers and update stakeholders on order progress
• Monitor key KPIs related to inventory and lead times
• Contribute to planning process improvements with a lean, customer-focused mindset

What You Know

You bring solid knowledge in production planning and an understanding of the full value chain — from supply chain logistics to shop-floor operations. You're comfortable working in ERP systems and enjoy solving problems that involve many moving parts.

• Experience with production planning tools and ERP systems
• Understanding of production flows and the manufacturing process
• Insight into purchasing and order handling functions
• Strong attention to detail and data accuracy
• Fluent communication skills in Swedish and English

Who You Are

You are structured and service-minded, with a natural ability to connect with people and align across functions. You thrive in a large, fast-paced environment — where teamwork matters just as much as individual drive. You're motivated by solving problems, exceeding expectations, and learning something new every day.

What’s in it for you?

We offer a challenging position in an open and friendly environment where we help each other to develop and create value. Your work will have a true impact on Alfa Laval’s future success, driving towards Positive Impact for our planet.

We care about diversity, inclusion, and equity in our recruitment processes. We also believe behavioral traits can provide important insights into a candidate's fit to a role. To help us achieve this we apply Pymetrics assessments, and upon application you will be invited to play the assessment games.
