Elevate your career at Airbus Belfast as our Business Operations Manager. You will be the lead designer of our growth strategy, building a robust value stream through lean methodology and data-driven financial management. By bridging the gap between shop-floor operations and corporate support, you will ensure our facility remains a global benchmark for rate-readiness. We are looking for an influential leader to de-risk our supply chain and accelerate commercial success in a world-class aerospace hub.
HOW YOU WILL CONTRIBUTE TO THE TEAM
Strategic Integration & Risk Mitigation: You are the bridge between operations and support functions. You use the ARM (Active Risk Management) tool and TIP (Tactical Implementation Plans) to identify financial and operational bottlenecks, ensuring change management plans are executed to eradicate "hard-hitting" business problems.

Financial & Resource Stewardship: You manage significant growth by exercising delegated budget authority over CAPEX, NRC (Non-Recurring Costs), NPO, and Indirect Payroll. You ensure the business is "resourced for the future" by aligning recruitment and training with long-term Airbus profitability goals.
ABOUT YOU
Strategic Risk Manager: You are proficient in risk-mitigation tools (such as ARM) and have experience formulating Tactical Implementation Plans (TIP) to protect business continuity.
Financial Architect: You possess an "assiduous" approach to financial planning, with experience managing CAPEX, NPO, and indirect payroll to drive value stream profitability.
Change Agent: You are an expert in Continuous Improvement and change management, with the ability to detect and eliminate non-added-value activities to enhance SQCDP performance.
