Scheduler

Scheduler / Planner required for a new, permanent role in Darlington.  This is a full-time role, created to deliver all support functions in terms of planning and scheduling reactive and planned work streams.   (one week in four there will be afternoon, evening and weekend work, this can be done from home).

The Role
Working for a construction business, you will be required to allocate teams to attend to emergency, reactive works and also pre-planned, maintenance works as required.  This needs to be done efficiently to ensure full utilisation of resources, taking into account all live streams of work and reducing unproductive time as much as possible.  The role requires a constant review of outstanding jobs with a view to prioritising urgent ones and putting on hold ones that crews can drop onto if/when work is quiet 

The provision of a first class level of service is vital, balanced with commercially sensible decisions being made and, working to strict SLAs, you will screen incoming work orders to ensure they are complete and accurate, before passing on to the relevant team.  In addition to this, you will speak with customers to arrange access prior to the crew arriving to start the work and, upon completion, speak with the customer to make sure they are fully happy with the work done and taking payment where required.

Strong IT skills are required for this role as there are a number of portals and bespoke systems used multiple times daily.  

Be part of the Out of Hours rota, ensuring an effective handover takes place.  The hours are full-time 8.30-5.00 Mon-Fri in the office for three weeks and then there is a requirement to work one week 2pm to midnight for 7 days.  In return for this, a lieu day can be taken the following week and there is also an additional payment of circa £5,000 per year for this, on top of a £25,000 salary.
