The job
In this challenging and exciting senior role you will have the following main objectives: One is to ensure excellent planning and coordination across our LEAN project portfolio. Another is development and standardisation of principles, systems and tools including ensuring proof of concepts by pilot execution.
More in detail you will, on an ongoing basis and based on the project portfolio, consult the Product Supply management at all levels to initiate and run cross-functional LEAN development programs. You take lead and execute complex change and improvement projects including pilot projects to ensure proof of concepts and to create acceptance and organisational buy in on the developed concepts. Part of the role is to be senior advisor, consultant and coach for senior management to ensure local ownership of the developed solutions – at all levels of the organisation.

You have documented your ability to initiate and manage large and complex projects in a multi site environment – and you are used to turn your knowledge into new tools, systems and methods. Your stakeholder management and communication skills are excellent, and you have the professionalism and charisma it takes to coach and convince people at senior management level. At the same time you can explain colleagues at operator level why changes are necessary and how they personally will benefit from contributing with an open and positive mindset. Your LEAN education is at Black belt level or similar, and a natural part of your work routines is to stay updated on the latest developments within LEAN principles and methodologies. Finally, you must have an excellent command of English, written and spoken.
