This role is ideal for a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt (or equivalent) who thrives in dynamic, high-growth environments and has a proven track record of driving measurable improvement in operational performance. You’ll lead critical process improvement initiatives across our global test network—spanning the UK and international sites—working cross-functionally to reduce waste, improve process stability, and enable repeatable, high-quality delivery at scale.

Work with regional teams and functional stakeholders to standardise operations, eliminate non-value-adding activities, and improve reliability of critical processes
Define and implement SLAs, SOPs, escalation procedures, and RACI/decision matrices across key workflows
Introduce KPIs, dashboards, and other visual tools to track process performance and drive accountability across the organisation. Use data analytics and SQL to monitor process performance, identify bottlenecks, and quantify improvements
Partner with software, data, and infrastructure teams to scope and support automation of repetitive or high-volume tasks
Serve as a strategic partner to Ops leadership, applying structured problem-solving to key growth and scalability challenges
Champion continuous improvement across Fleet Ops. Coach teams on best practices in process design and operational excellence
Requirements:
5+ years’ experience in process improvement, operations design, or operational excellence roles in high-complexity environments (e.g., tech, logistics, robotics, manufacturing, or mobility)
Certified Lean Six Sigma Black Belt or equivalent experience running high-impact continuous improvement initiatives
Deep experience with workflow mapping, process documentation (BPMN), and standardisation
Strong facilitation skills: able to lead workshops and interviews with technical and frontline stakeholders
Skilled in SQL and data analysis
able to pull data and build or interpret dashboards and trackers
Familiar with incident management, readiness reviews, and risk/control frameworks
Proven ability to influence across teams and functions, including remote/global stakeholders
Strong written, verbal, and visual communication skills (e.g. documentation, SOPs, presentations)
Comfortable with tools such as Confluence, Asana/Jira, Lucidchart, or equivalent
Experience implementing task management tools and working with internal tools on operational product development
Ability to travel internationally up to 40% of the time, to support process design and change adaptation across all operational sites
Strong documentation and technical writing skills
Nice to have:
