Key Responsibilities

Change Management

The successful candidate will serve as a change management expert, providing guidance, training, and coaching to drive transformation and improve processes.

Business System and Curriculum Development

You will play a crucial role in defining, conceptualizing, and customizing a business-specific system, along with associated curriculum and training modules, to support our lean management system.

People Development

As a key contributor to our kaizen culture, you will be responsible for helping the organization transition from reliance on external experts to an employee-driven approach, focusing on technical skills and behavioral development.
