Plan and facilitate cross-functional Kaizen events that drive measurable improvements across manufacturing, sales, and support functions.

Implement core Lean Systems and tools such as 5S, standard work, visual management, value stream mapping, TPM, and continuous flow to eliminate waste and improve efficiency.

Champion and oversee the deployment of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), including the implementation of pillars like autonomous maintenance, planned maintenance, quality maintenance, and early equipment management.

Design and deliver structured Lean and TPM training programs that teach tools, principles, and cultural behaviors across all organizational levels, ensuring understanding and practical application.

Coach and mentor employees and leaders in structured problem-solving methods such as A3 thinking to build capability and foster ownership.

Act as a hands-on liaison between the site and corporate teams, ensuring strategic alignment and effective communication across all improvement initiatives.

Support capital investment planning by conducting ROI analysis and evaluating the operational impact of proposed projects.

Develop and maintain True North Boards and PQVC (People, Quality, Velocity, Cost) dashboards to ensure performance visibility and alignment with business objectives.

Integrate Lean thinking into onboarding and leadership development programs to reinforce a culture of continuous improvement from day one.

Build internal problem-solving capability by coaching teams to sustain gains and independently lead improvement efforts.

Facilitate cross-functional alignment sessions to identify priorities, remove barriers, and foster collaboration across departments.

Collaborate with corporate leadership to align operational improvements with business growth strategies, including capacity expansion and new product introductions.

TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN THIS ROLE, YOUR EXPERIENCE AND COMPETENCIES ARE:

Extensive experience in Lean Manufacturing and Continuous Improvement, with a demonstrated ability to implement and sustain long-term improvements across various business functions.

A proven track record of leading and facilitating Kaizen events that deliver measurable results in manufacturing, engineering, sales, service, and administrative processes.
