Job Description

As Operational Excellence Lead at NTS Singapore, you are the driving force behind our site's operational transformation. Working closely with the site leadership team and with production, engineering, maintenance, quality and supply chain, you develop and run the site's Operational Excellence roadmap and roll out NTS standards such as Daily Performance Management, Structured Problem Solving, 5S, Standard Work and Leader Standard Work. Your main focus is improving logistics and production productivity, with measurable, double-digit impact on Safety, Quality, Delivery, Inventory and Productivity (SQDIP). You don't stop at finding opportunities. You make sure improvements are put into practice, built into daily operations and sustained over time. Acting as a role model and challenger, you bring an outside-in view, benchmark performance internally and externally, and build a culture of ownership and continuous improvement.

Furthermore, your key responsibilities are:

  • Develop and execute the site's Operational Excellence roadmap, aligned with factory and business objectives, and lead the annual Strategy Deployment cycle with monthly follow-up reviews;
  • Lead multiple cross-functional improvement projects using Lean, Six Sigma and Kaizen to eliminate waste, standardise processes and improve productivity, quality and cost;
  • Prepare and facilitate Value Stream Mapping sessions, Kaizen events, root cause analyses and problem-solving workshops (3C, A3, DMAIC);
  • Analyse operational data and performance metrics to make waste visible, prioritise initiatives and track benefits realisation and sustainability;
  • Build site-wide capability by training and coaching managers, supervisors and shopfloor teams in Lean thinking, structured problem solving and change management;
  • Support leadership with performance management and daily management systems, and act as a constructive challenger to the site leadership team;
  • Support digitalisation and automation initiatives, and report progress and results to factory leadership and senior management.

Job Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Industrial or Mechanical Engineering, Operations Management, Supply Chain, Business Administration or a related field;
  • 5–8 years of experience in Operational Excellence, Continuous Improvement, Lean or Manufacturing Excellence roles in a manufacturing environment;
  • Proven track record of leading OpEx transformations and delivering measurable, sustainable improvements, including implementing operating models across departments;
  • Strong hands-on knowledge of Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, TPM, 5S, Visual Management, A3 problem solving and Value Stream Mapping; a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt is highly desirable;
  • Strong analytical skills, combined with a pragmatic, data-driven and results-oriented way of working;
  • A natural coach and change agent who can influence without formal authority, with strong facilitation and stakeholder management skills at all levels, from shopfloor operators to senior leaders;
  • Excellent English, spoken and written; consulting experience is a plus.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
