*
Conduct market and competitor research to support strategic decisions
*
Work closely with internal teams (operations, sales, marketing) and external senior stakeholders
*
Ensure consistent service delivery and high levels of client satisfaction
*
Monitor partnership performance, report on key metrics, and evaluate return on investment (ROI)
*
Drive continuous improvement in operational practices and service standards
What We’re Looking For
*
A degree is preferred, though relevant experience will also be considered
*
5–8 years of experience in operations, partnerships, or commercial leadership
*
Strong experience in a manufacturing or industrial environment is highly desirable
*
Proven track record of managing full P&L responsibility
