Job Description
Vilgain: a fast-growing lovebrand with global ambitions. Join us and help shape how our food is planned and produced.
We are Vilgain – a fast-growing food & lifestyle lovebrand built on clean ingredients, functional nutrition, and honest products. We produce our own food, from peanut butters and protein products to fresh and semi-fresh items, and we’re expanding rapidly across Europe, the UK, and the USA. As we continue to grow, we’re looking for a Production Planner who wants to be close to real production, learn fast, and have a visible impact on how things work.
What You’ll Be Doing
• Supporting and gradually taking ownership of day-to-day production planning
• Translating demand into realistic production plans with respect to capacity, materials, and freshness
• Creating and maintaining daily and weekly production plans
• Working closely with production teams and adjusting plans in real time when priorities or conditions change
• Coordinating raw material and packaging availability with procurement
• Monitoring stock levels of finished goods and work-in-progress, with a strong focus on shelf life and expiration dates
• Helping identify bottlenecks, delays, and waste, and contributing to continuous process improvements
Who We’re Looking For
• 2–3 years of experience in production planning, supply chain, or manufacturing coordination
• Background in food production or FMCG is a strong advantage
• Experience with fresh, chilled, or short-shelf-life products (e.g. dairy, refrigerated foods) is a big plus
• Comfort working close to production and communicating with shop-floor teams
• Good analytical skills and experience with Excel and basic planning or ERP systems
Organized, detail-oriented mindset with ownership and willingness to learn
• Ability to react quickly in a fast-changing, hands-on environment
What We Offer
• High level of autonomy and real impact on how planning and forecasting processes are set up
• Opportunity to grow in a fast-growing company with 100%+ YoY growth and global ambitions (EU, UK, USA)
• Close cooperation with our Brno HQ, Prague hub, and international teams
• Fast-paced but supportive environment with a flexible, engaged team
• Competitive compensation
• Employee discounts on Vilgain products
• Learning and development opportunities
• MultiSport card and additional benefits
Ready to become part of a modern, fast-growing lovebrand and help shape how our food gets made?
