Some businesses talk about “continuous improvement”.
This role is for someone who actually delivers it.
Not by sitting in a meeting room making pretty PowerPoints about efficiency…But by getting into the operation, understanding the problems properly and implementing changes that genuinely improve performance.
This is a role for someone who naturally spots waste, inefficiencies, bottlenecks and broken processes before everyone else does.
Someone who enjoys fixing things.Improving things.Challenging things.And importantly — bringing people with them whilst doing it.
If you thrive in fast-paced logistics or operational environments and enjoy making measurable improvements that actually matter, keep reading.
The Role
You’ll take ownership of Continuous Improvement activity across a busy operational environment, driving projects that improve efficiency, productivity, quality and operational performance.
You’ll work closely with operational leaders, site teams and wider business stakeholders to identify opportunities for improvement and implement practical, sustainable solutions.
This is not a “sit behind a laptop and report on problems” role.
They need someone hands-on, visible and operationally credible.
What You’ll Be Doing
• Leading Continuous Improvement initiatives across the site• Identifying operational inefficiencies and improvement opportunities• Analysing operational and performance data to support decision making• Driving Lean and process improvement projects• Supporting operational teams through change initiatives• Implementing and improving SOPs and operational processes• Facilitating workshops, coaching and CI training sessions• Monitoring project outcomes and reporting improvements to senior leadership• Supporting cost reduction and productivity improvement initiatives• Working cross-functionally with operations and support teams• Promoting a culture of accountability, engagement and continuous improvement• Supporting standardisation and operational best practice across the business
What You’ll Need
• Experience within logistics, warehousing, supply chain or manufacturing• Strong Continuous Improvement or operational excellence experience• Exposure to Lean, Six Sigma or similar CI methodologies• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills• Experience managing projects and driving operational change• Ability to influence stakeholders at all levels• Confidence analysing data and presenting findings clearly• Strong communication and relationship-building skills• A practical, hands-on and solutions-focused approach
What They’re Looking For
Someone who can challenge processes without creating resistance.
Someone commercially aware enough to understand operational impact.Someone credible enough that teams actually listen when they speak.Someone who can balance people, process and performance without overcomplicating everything.
The kind of person who walks into an operation and immediately starts mentally reorganising it.
What You Might Not Like
If you like being told exactly what to do every day…This probably isn’t for you.
There will be ambiguity.You’ll need resilience.You’ll need influence.And sometimes you’ll need to push through resistance to make improvements happen.
But if you enjoy creating positive operational change and genuinely making an impact, this role offers a lot of scope.
What To Do Next
If you’ve got strong operational improvement experience within logistics, warehousing, manufacturing or supply chain environments and want a role where your ideas and experience will actually be valued, apply today.
Or if you prefer a confidential conversation first, that’s absolutely fine too.
