Continuous Improvement Coordinator

Are you a production, operations, or process specialist ready to step out of the daily shift grind and into a dedicated, strategic role?

A leading, rapidly expanding FMCG food manufacturer in East Glasgow is looking for a Continuous Improvement (CI) Coordinator to spearhead the rollout of Lean and CI projects across their factory site. This is a pivotal, days-based position where you will directly influence production efficiency, eliminate waste, and elevate product quality.

If you are a data-driven problem solver with a background in manufacturing and a passion for Lean methodologies, we want to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities of the CI Coordinator

As CI Coordinator, you won't just follow processes—you will build a culture of excellence. Your core focus will include:

• Championing Lean Initiatives: Present, facilitate, and lead high-impact Lean improvement events and workshops across the factory.

• Data-Driven Problem Solving: Conduct deep-dive root cause analysis, leverage Business Central Data, and use precise measurement methods to map and document clear process improvements.

• Strategic Reporting: Develop and deliver concise reports to the Senior Leadership Team (SLT), tracking milestones, engagement, and alignment with our global Lean agenda.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with floor-level production teams to identify bottlenecks, implement solutions, and streamline information flow across departments.

• Safety Leadership: Proactively integrate safety awareness into every improvement strategy—ensuring efficiency never comes at the cost of safety.

• Project Oversight: Manage and maintain full visibility over multiple concurrent CI projects from conception to completion.

• A solid background in a complex fast paced manufacturing environment (Operations, Production, or Process).

• Proven knowledge and practical experience with CI tools and Lean methodologies.

• Strong analytical skills—you are comfortable interpreting data to build a compelling business case for change.

• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to engage operators on the shop floor and influence stakeholders in the boardroom.
