About the Role:
We’re looking for a highly operational Continuous Improvement Manager to join our clients fast-paced, multi-site manufacturing business. This role isn’t about sitting in a conference room building PowerPoints. It’s about being out on the shop floor—watching, questioning, understanding, and driving real change.

* Champion a culture of operational excellence and continuous improvement at all levels of the organisation
* Travel frequently including to Europe to support and standardise best practices across sites
What We’re Looking For:
* A proven background in hands-on manufacturing operations—you know what good looks like because you’ve built it yourself
* Strong working knowledge of lean principles, but more importantly, the instinct to know when and how to apply them effectively
* Comfortable working in a fast-moving, high-pressure production environment
* A doer, a fixer, a change-maker—not a theorist
* Experience in a multi-site manufacturing environment
* Willingness and ability to travel frequently across Europe (essential)
* Strong communication skills with the ability to influence and challenge constructively as well as galvanising the workforce to want to do things better.
Why Join?

* Make a direct and tangible impact across our European manufacturing footprint
* Work alongside skilled professionals who are serious about performance and quality
