  • Coach & Mentor: Guide teams in collaborative problem-solving, mentor junior CI practitioners, and foster a culture of continuous learning.
  • Collaborate Across All Levels: Influence stakeholders without authority—from frontline shop-floor teams to executive leadership—while aligning initiatives with core business strategies.

Qualifications & Requirements:

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Business, Operations, Supply Chain, or a related field (Advanced degrees or specialized training in Lean/Six Sigma are a strong plus).
  • Experience: 5+ years of proven success delivering CI and process excellence results, including change management and cross-functional project leadership.
  • Certifications: Lean or Six Sigma certifications preferred.

Core Competencies:

  • Advanced facilitation skills (Process Mapping, rapid improvement events, daily management systems, GEMBA).
  • Strong analytical capabilities (root cause analysis, process capability, data storytelling).
  • Exceptional communication, influencing, and stakeholder management skills.
