About this Role
Are you an experienced Operational Excellence Lead, Continuous Improvement Lead, Transformation Manager, or Operational Improvement Specialist looking for an opportunity to influence change across a diverse group of businesses? As our Operational Excellence Lead, you will bridge strategic transformation priorities with operational delivery, helping Dawsongroup turn insight into measurable improvement and sustainable business success.
This is a highly visible group role, reporting to the Chief Transformation Officer and working closely with senior operational leaders across multiple Business Units. You will be responsible for identifying opportunities, driving improvement initiatives, and ensuring that strategic objectives are translated into practical actions that deliver meaningful results.
About You
You are someone who enjoys solving complex operational challenges and turning insight into action. Equally comfortable working with data and people, you can build credibility with senior stakeholders while maintaining a practical focus on delivering results.
You understand that operational excellence is about more than reporting metrics. It is about creating sustainable improvements that support business growth, improve performance, and deliver value for customers and colleagues alike.
Being comfortable working in a hybrid environment with regular office and site engagement is essential. A full UK driving licence would be advantageous where travel between locations is required.
Not sure if you meet every requirement? No candidate ever ticks every box. We are looking for potential, capability, and the right mindset as much as experience, so if this opportunity excites you, we would love to hear from you.
