The role
No two days are the same.

- Independently leading complex improvement trajectories from analysis to implementation and safeguarding.
- Identifying structural improvement opportunities within the online operation and translating these into concrete solutions.
- Coordinating project teams and monitoring progress, results, and stakeholder interests.
- Acting as a sparring partner for site managers, location managers, and operational managers regarding operational performance.
- Independently facilitating workshops focused on process improvement, collaboration, and problem-solving.
- Actively contributing to the implementation and further development of Lean working.
- Drafting business cases and providing substantive contributions to operational annual plans.
- (Overseeing the) development and safeguarding of work instructions, process descriptions, and best practices.
- Coaching and guiding colleagues within improvement initiatives and change trajectories.
