- Working closely with Plant Leadership, Production, Engineering, Quality, and SCM
- Improving productivity, efficiency, cost, safety, and quality through structured problem-solving
- Embedding standard ways of working (daily management, tier meetings, visual management)

Key Note
We are looking for manufacturing leaders with strong, hands-on factory operations experience who have applied or worked with Manufacturing Excellence / IL6S principles as part of their roles.
Deep plant operations exposure is essential; formal IL6S or Manufacturing Excellence titles are valuable but not mandatory, provided there is a solid understanding and practical application of these frameworks on the shopfloor.
