Johnson & Johnson is currently seeking a Maintenance Planner/Scheduler to join our MAKE Asset Management Organization located in US Large Molecule Drug Substance Site located in Wilson, North Carolina.
This role will support a new site startup, which may require periods of heightened travel to support these activities.
Travel requirements will be determined during the site ramp-up period based on functional needs and project timelines, potentially involving frequent travel or short-term stays with vendors, sister companies, or partners.
While this role will ultimately support the site operations in Wilson, NC, it will also require support during the project phase across both design and construction.
During the project design phase, the role will require presence with our design teams in the Greater Philadelphia region.
