  • Best Practice Implementation: Develop and implement best practices that optimise business processes, increase productivity, and reduce operational costs.
  • Change Management: Lead change initiatives, ensuring smooth implementation of new processes, technologies, and workflows across the business.
  • Reporting & KPI Management: Develop, track, and report on key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure the success of process improvements and provide insights to senior leadership.
  • Innovation: Stay ahead of industry trends and technologies to identify new opportunities for operational enhancements and innovation.

The Candidate:

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in process improvement within a retail or fast-paced consumer environment. You will have a passion for driving change and an ability to work collaboratively across teams to implement lasting improvements.

Skills & Experience:

  • Proven experience in process improvement roles within retail, supply chain, logistics, or customer service environments.
  • Strong project management skills with the ability to lead cross-functional teams to deliver complex process improvement initiatives.
  • Expertise in data analysis and the ability to use insights to drive decision-making and performance improvements.
  • Familiarity with process improvement methodologies such as Lean, Six Sigma, or other recognised frameworks.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to engage and influence stakeholders at all levels of the organisation.
  • Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with a focus on identifying opportunities and delivering effective solutions.
  • Experience in change management, with a proven ability to manage and implement operational changes across large teams.
  • A proactive, results-oriented approach with the ability to prioritise and manage multiple projects simultaneously.

What's on Offer:

  • Competitive salary of up to £55,000, depending on experience.
  • Bonus structure based on personal and company performance.
  • Comprehensive benefits package, including pension, healthcare, and other perks.
  • Flexible working options including hybrid working arrangements to support your work-life balance.
