You’ll manage improvement practitioners, who lead smaller improvement projects, while drawing on your advanced knowledge and skills in applying improvement principles and tools across a range of programmes, projects and areas to build the capability of others. You’ll also swiftly visualise processes, problems and opportunities and use both graphical and statistical analysis to deliver improvements. You’ll work closely with other improvement specialists to support the delivery of improvement strategy, working on multiple simultaneous projects linked to key business objectives, identifying and engaging both subject matter experts and key stakeholders.
