• Lead continuous improvement initiatives using Lean, Six Sigma, and structured problem-solving methodologies.
• Facilitate process design workshops with engineering, product, deployment, operations, quality, and commercial teams.
• Develop process governance, ownership, performance metrics, and change-control practices.
• Lead change management, training, and rollout activities to support sustained adoption of new processes.
• Define process KPIs and use performance data to measure results and identify further improvements.
• Support ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 compliance, including process documentation, audits, corrective actions, and continuous improvement.
• Collaborate with teams across the Americas and Australia to align local procedures with the global process framework.
• Travel occasionally to sites across the Americas and Australia, as required.

Qualifications

Must Have

• 7+ years of experience in process engineering, operational excellence, business process management, or continuous improvement, ideally within a complex, multi-site, or global organization.
• Strong knowledge of Lean methodologies and hands-on experience with tools such as value stream mapping, SIPOC, root cause analysis, A3 problem-solving, and Kaizen.
• Demonstrated experience designing and documenting structured processes using inputs and outputs, RACI matrices, swimlanes, or process flows.
• Proven ability to take processes from design through implementation and sustained adoption.
• Experience leading change management initiatives and encouraging teams to adopt new ways of working.
• Working experience with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 management systems, including writing compliant processes, supporting audits, and managing corrective actions.
• Experience defining KPIs and process performance metrics and using data to support decisions.
• Strong facilitation and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to lead cross-functional workshops across teams and time zones.

Nice To Have

• Lean Six Sigma Black Belt or Green Belt with significant project experience.
• Certified Internal Auditor or Lead Auditor certification in ISO 9001 and/or ISO 14001.
• Experience building or harmonizing an integrated management system across multiple sites or legal entities.

• Clarity and discipline: You communicate clearly, document carefully, and simplify processes wherever possible.
• Influence without authority: You build trust and drive adoption through partnership across functions, cultures, and locations.
