This is a pivotal role that will act as a core conduit for true cross functional working across Production Purchasing, Engineering, Sustainability, Finance, Stampings Group, Legal, MP&L, STA, Cost Engineering and Manufacturing

**WHAT YOU’LL NEED**

Essential:

- An individual with very strong analytical skills, able to help the company problem solve by breaking down information, looking through data and finding patterns, trends and outliers
- An excellent communicator who can communicate complex ideas to key stakeholders to influence cross functional alignment.
- An individual with strong presentation skills, able to present and articulate complex issues in a clear and simplistic visual form
- An individual who is able to challenge existing thinking in a positive way whilst building credibility and trust through experience and personal style
- An individual who is results driven, has tenacity, drive and perseverance, leading the team to deliver strategic plans in a complex, highly demanding environment.
- An individual who is resilient, energetic and enthusiastic, able to deliver results under pressure, whilst responding constructively to challenging new ideas and inputs
- A effective team player, who actively develops and supports team members
- An effective networker who will actively seek out and collaborate with internal stakeholders

**SO WHY US?**

Bring all this to the home of premium innovation, and you’ll find the opportunities to further your career with a world-class team, a discounted car purchase and lease scheme for you and your family, membership of a competitive pension plan and performance related bonus scheme. All this and more makes JLR the perfect place to continue your journey.

This role may offer the opportunity for hybrid working where you can split your time between working from home and in the office.
