INTRODUCTION
We are seeking a Manufacturing & Operations Consultant with deep Lean and Six Sigma expertise to lead high-impact operational improvement initiatives across client environments. Our work is rooted in manufacturing and extends across the broader operation, including supply chain, distribution, maintenance, and supporting business processes.
This is a hands-on role focused on execution. You will work directly in plants, warehouses, and operational settings to diagnose issues, design practical solutions, and implement change that delivers measurable results. You will also coach client teams, mentor Green and Yellow Belts, and help clients build continuous improvement capability that lasts.
What Good Looks Like
You'll thrive in this role if you:
- Are equally comfortable on the shop floor, in the warehouse, and in the boardroom
- Can quickly identify waste, flow issues, variation, and root causes
- Balance statistical rigor with practical judgment and speed
- Bring structure and direction to ambiguous situations, defining the work and driving execution
- Proactively identify risks, remove roadblocks, and keep work moving forward
- Work as part of a high-performance team, sharing information openly and stepping in where needed to ensure team success
- Communicate clearly and confidently at every level, from IE teammates and frontline teams to senior leaders
- Naturally coach, teach, and elevate others
- Build trust quickly across all levels of an organization
- Adapt quickly to new industries and operating environments, applying core operational principles regardless of context
Diagnose & Analyze. Assess current-state operations end to end, including production, material flow, supply chain, and support processes, to identify waste, bottlenecks, variation, and flow constraints. Lead value stream mapping and process walks. Use statistical analysis (hypothesis testing, regression, capability analysis, MSA) and data tools (Minitab or JMP, Excel, Power BI) to validate root causes and quantify opportunity.
Design & Plan. Develop future-state solutions including flow, layout, labor models, capacity, inventory and pull systems, and process improvements. Support 3P, facility design, and Design for Manufacturing (DFM) initiatives where applicable. Build practical, executable implementation plans tied to measurable outcomes.
Implement & Execute. Own and drive execution of defined workstreams, ensuring progress against plan, timelines, and deliverables. Plan and facilitate kaizen events and rapid improvement activities. Implement Lean tools including standard work, visual management, 5S, SMED, kanban/pull, and TPM. Lead DMAIC projects from charter through control, applying DOE and SPC where appropriate. Coordinate across client stakeholders and IE team members to ensure alignment and execution. Integrate digital, data, and AI-enabled insights where applicable.
Sustain & Coach. Implement management systems such as tiered meetings, KPIs, leader standard work, control plans, and accountability structures. Coach frontline leaders and teams to sustain improvements. Mentor and deliver Lean Six Sigma training as needed.
Build CI Capability. Help clients stand up or strengthen continuous improvement programs, including deployment strategy, project selection and chartering, pipeline management, governance, and strategy deployment (hoshin kanri). Partner with client finance to validate project savings.
Communicate & Influence. Present insights, plans, and results to client leadership. Facilitate alignment across cross-functional teams. Support decision-making with clear, data-backed recommendations. Contribute to consistent, high-quality delivery across IE engagements.
