Leading kaizen events and lean transformation projects, facilitating root cause analysis and problem-solving workshops, developing CI capability in production staff and supervisors, tracking and reporting CI savings, maintaining the lean management system, and partnering with operations on waste elimination projects.
Lean Six Sigma Black Belt certification, 5–10 years of manufacturing experience with demonstrated CI project delivery, training and facilitation skills, and the credibility to influence operators, supervisors, and senior leadership simultaneously. Toyota Production System or Danaher Business System experience is particularly valued.
CI managers who can point to sustained improvement — results that held for 12+ months after the initial project — rather than short-term gains that reverted demonstrate the training and follow-through capability that separates transformative CI leaders from event facilitators.
