Job Description & How to Apply Below
We’re looking for an experienced Senior Material Planner to join a fast-growing space technology business developing advanced satellite communications hardware.
This isn’t a standard Material Planner position. We’re looking for someone who genuinely understands the complexity of planning materials for aerospace or satellite builds — from long-range demand through to finished flight hardware.
What You’ll Be Doing- Own material planning across complex satellite / aerospace manufacturing programs
- Plan requirements 18–24 months ahead, accounting for long-lead materials and supplier constraints
- Translate production demand into robust material and supply plans
- Identify future shortages, supply risks and material constraints before they impact production
- Manage and analyse data across ERP/MRP systems
- Extract, manipulate and interpret planning data using Excel
- Support NPI, engineering changes and evolving production requirements
- Work across Supply Chain, Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality and Program Management
- Turn complex planning data into clear insights and recommendations
- Present material status, risks and recovery plans to senior leaders and executives
- Strong material planning experience within satellite, space or aerospace manufacturing
- Excellent understanding of MRP, BOMs, demand planning and inventory management
- Experience managing long-lead materials and supplier lead times
- Ability to think and plan 18–24 months into the future
- Advanced Excel and data manipulation capability
- Experience extracting and analysing data from ERP/MRP systems
- Power Query experience would be a major advantage
- Strong understanding of the wider supply chain, not simply MRP system administration
- Confidence communicating complex information to directors and executives
- We’re looking for someone who is proactive, adaptable and comfortable taking ownership.
- You’ll need to be comfortable operating in a fast-moving, high-pressure environment, making informed decisions with imperfect information and taking calculated risks when necessary.
