• Map current-state processes and design future-state improvements
• Identify inefficiencies and implement operational improvements
• Drive consistency across multiple sites and functions
• Support wider transformation initiatives as the contract evolves
• Work closely with operational leadership teams and key stakeholders
• Track delivery of improvement initiatives and ensure benefits are realised

What they’re looking for:

• Strong background in Continuous Improvement, Operational Excellence, or Process Improvement
• Lean Six Sigma or equivalent continuous improvement methodology experience
• Proven track record of driving operational efficiencies and leading change initiatives
• Strong process mapping capability
• Ability to operate both strategically and in a hands-on delivery capacity

Desirable experience:

• Contract mobilisation or transition experience
• Multi-site operational environments
• Backgrounds within facilities management, logistics, utilities, manufacturing, transport, or similar service-led environments
