The position
As a Manager, you will play a key role in our organization, leading your team in driving the LEAN strategy at the site.

In this capacity, the Manager for LEAN & Operational Excellence supports various departments and collaborates with several functions both globally and locally. Therefore, you will ensure ongoing dialogue, collaboration, and strong business partnerships with all stakeholders to achieve alignment, anticipate, and mitigate potential challenges. In this role, you will report to the Director of Business Support.

The team consists of approx. 11 employees spanning from LEAN Project Managers, Analysts, LEAN coaches and Partners. The team is highly ambitious and diverse and are known to have a strong culture of respect, innovation and fun.

Your key responsibilities will include:

  • Motivating, leading, and setting direction for your team members.

In collaboration with leaders across the site, you will be accountable for ensuring that all business areas are successfully able to work with cSS & LEAN Leadership. In addition, your LEAN team will be responsible for different improvement projects, LEAN training programs, and coaching at all levels.

Qualifications

  • An academic degree within engineering, supply chain, or similar.
  • Leadership experience through direct line management and/or leading project managers, combined with LEAN implementation, SixSigma and process improvement expertise.
  • Experience with strategy deployment, leadership coaching, change management and operational excellence is an advantage.
  • Knowledge of GMP is an advantage.
  • Fluency in English; Danish proficiency is an advantage.

With a strategic outlook, you can look at the broader picture, coach and provide guidance to those you lead. You are systematic and a clear communicator and you thrive working autonomously whilst still in close collaboration with our partners. In busy periods, you can keep the overview and set direction through aligned priorities.

The co-teams in the department are responsible for Project Management of Investment Projects, Digitalisation, Manufacturing & Business Intelligence, Finance & Procurement, Training & Onboarding, Supply Chain & Production Planning, and Warehouse Operations.

We are a social team that makes room for diversity and sees the strength in each other's differences. We are ambitious and strive to deliver the best possible services to our production departments. To help you do this, we will guarantee you a lot of sparring and development feedback. And we make sure to have fun while we drive the business forward.
