Maintenance Planner

We're hiring a Maintenance Planner / Reliability Coordinator to improve equipment uptime, reduce maintenance cost, and bring discipline to planning and scheduling in a mill environment.

This is a hands-on planning role. You'll spend time in the field, work closely with maintenance and production, and own the CMMS, backlog, PMs, and weekly schedule.

What You'll Do

· Plan and scope maintenance jobs with accurate labor, parts, and timing

· Build job plans and task lists in the CMMS

· Convert work requests into clean, executable work orders

· Manage planned and unplanned backlog

· Prepare and review weekly maintenance schedules

· Coordinate priorities with production and maintenance leadership

· Support outages, shutdowns, and major repairs

· Maintain PM and PdM programs (vibration, thermography, oil analysis)

· Ensure work orders are properly closed with accurate history

· Maintain LOTO, permits, and safety documentation in CMMS

· Support failure analysis and corrective actions

· Reserve parts and manage pick tickets for planned work

· Step in to support Maintenance Supervisors as needed

What We're Looking For

· Strong maintenance planning and scheduling experience

· Solid electrical and mechanical maintenance knowledge

· Skilled with CMMS systems and maintenance data analysis

· Experience with PM, PdM, FMEA, and reliability principles

· Ability to work in the field and in the system — not one or the other

· Comfortable in hot, industrial environments and long days when needed

· Lean / continuous improvement experience preferred

Education / Experience

· Technical degree preferred OR 7 years of equivalent hands-on experience

· Proven background in industrial or mill maintenance environments

Why This Role:

This is a visible, high-impact role that directly affects uptime, safety, and cost. If you like structure, accountability, and being the person who makes maintenance run smoother — this job matters.
