Deployment Planner

Your new company

You’ll be joining a dynamic and fast-paced organisation undertaking a large-scale, business-critical technology deployment across a network of over 1,500 branches and 20,000 devices. With a strong focus on operational excellence and innovation, the company is looking for someone who can bring structure, foresight, and control to a complex and fast-moving rollout.

Your new role

As the Deployment Planner, you will take full ownership of the deployment plan, acting as the central point of coordination and control. You’ll be responsible for forward planning, issue resolution, and ensuring smooth execution across all phases of the rollout. Working closely with internal teams, external partners, and a team of coordinators, you’ll manage large volumes of data, track progress, and keep the business informed and aligned.

What you'll need to succeed

  • Proven experience in deployment planning or similar roles.
  • Advanced Excel skills (pivot tables, XLOOKUP, Power Query, macros).
  • Strong ownership mindset and ability to work independently.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Experience managing complex, multi-location deployments.
  • Familiarity with planning tools such as MS Project or Smartsheet.

What you'll get in return

  • The opportunity to lead a high-impact, high-visibility deployment.
  • A collaborative and fast-paced working environment.
  • The chance to shape and improve planning processes from the ground up.
  • A role that offers both strategic influence and hands-on delivery.
