This executive role is pivotal, with full P&L ownership and a mandate to drive performance, alignment, and scalability across the platform. The successful candidate will be responsible for defining and executing the strategic roadmap, driving operational excellence through lean and continuous improvement, and optimizing the manufacturing footprint. Key impact areas include owning and delivering P&L performance, partnering with site general managers to ensure consistent execution of KPIs, and leading cross-functional alignment.
