**Site Planner**
================
We at Yara are part of a global network, collaborating to profitably and responsibly solve some of the world's key challenges \- resource scarcity, food insecurity and environmental change.
**About the Unit**
------------------
Yara is the Norwegian company, a global leader in the production and marketing of nitrogen-based fertilizers and industrial applications. Our mission is to responsibly feed the world and protect the planet. We have been present in Latin America since 1965 and operate globally with more than 17\.000 employees and sales in nearly 160 countries.
Our fertilizers, crop nutrition programs, and technologies increase yields, improve product quality, and reduce the environmental impact of agricultural practices. Our industrial and environmental solutions improve air quality by reducing emissions from industry and transportation, and serve as a key ingredient in the production of a wide range of products. We foster a culture that promotes the safety of our employees, contractors, and communities.
**Responsibilities**
--------------------
* Responsible for coordinating, together with Fulfillment Analysts, the optimal planning of production and order dispatch operations to ensure timely fulfillment of customer requirements, as well as the best alignment and balancing of production and loading loads across production and loading centers.
* Also responsible for coordinating with the Production or Inventory Supervisor to ensure advance availability of required inventories to meet production and sales requirements, including coordinating inventory reviews and supply requests in collaboration with this supervisor. Likewise, responsible for timely reporting to the Site Manager on potential limitations or risks of raw material shortages, enabling procurement or transfers to be coordinated with sufficient lead time to secure supplies ahead of demand.
* Perform daily tasks in accordance with standardized processes and procedures (e.g., creating and tracking orders in SAP, diligently monitoring internal SLAs, and collaborating with key stakeholders such as commercial and global planning, customer service, and transport management for order allocation).
* Communicate delivery plans and keep the daily and subsequent days’ loading schedule updated according to the loading capacity of the assigned production center. Furthermore, dispatch planning coordination must occur at least 24 hours in advance to enable operational scheduling. However, when same-day unit scheduling is possible—subject to plant capacity and agreement from the local operations team—schedule units for same-day loading as a special service to customers or Fulfillment Analysts under the MTS model, and lead S\&OE meetings.
* One of their core values must be promoting teamwork and achieving synergies across different functions, while being accustomed to using technological tools and communication systems to achieve company objectives.
