Are you an experienced Planner? Do you have experience setting expectations on deliveries and scheduling customer orders? If so, we are looking for someone to join our busy growing team!
Who are CloudNC?
CloudNC's mission is to make single-click manufacture a reality.
We build software that automates control of CNC machines - metalcutting robots (note maintain this hyperlink to a video, or even better embed the video in the page) that make >$1Trn of components every year, for anything from aircraft to iPhones to cars.
Worldwide over 100 million hours are spent painstakingly programming these incredible machines by hand every year, and we believe this is a colossal waste of human time and talent in an industry already facing an existential skills crisis. Our software, CAM Assist, brings one-click automation to CNC machining.
Our world-class team, with tier 1 financial backers including Atomico, Autodesk and Lockheed Martin, combines expertise in computer science and physical manufacturing, from our locations in London and Chelmsford.
We are scaling from Series B to C at pace and are fully funded for this growth.

● Conduct Root Cause Analysis on any scheduling errors and implement improvements to mitigate repeats
● Lead forecast and inventory planning meetings with key stakeholders, reviewing customer demand and inventory goals against set KPIs
● Collaborate with Operations Manager to provide real-time information on production priorities, material supply and On/Behind target output data
● Raising internal works orders and purchasing requirements to drive material through the supply chain to achieve on time performance and achieve Month On Hand targets.
● Provide accurate, timely and concise feedback in order to keep account reps / product support team members/supply chain apprised of delivery schedule changes at the earliest opportunity.
● Analyse product trends to ensure appropriate stock on hand (e.g. safety stock, MOH target)
● Maintain data integrity in the ERP system
● Liaise on a weekly basis with the cell leaders and external stakeholders to communicate demand patterns and any supply issues affecting the performance.
● Work with the heads of departments on strategic, long-term and visionary planning tasks.
Your Experience:
● Experience in a similar role within a manufacturing environment
● Knowledge of ERP and MRP Systems
● Clear communicator
● Strategic planning experience
● Previous exposure to CNC machining / precision engineering would be highly desirable
