Lean Six Sigma Jobs List

Lean manufacturing or lean production, which is often known simply as "Lean", is a production practice that considers the expenditure of resources for any goal other than the creation of value for the end customer to be wasteful and thus a target for elimination. Working from the perspective of the customer who consumes a product or service, "value" is defined as any action or process that a customer would be willing to pay for. Basically, lean is centered around creating more value with less work. Lean manufacturing is a generic process management philosophy derived mostly from the Toyota Production System (TPS) (hence the term Toyotism is also prevalent) and identified as "Lean" only in the 1990s.

Six Sigma is a business management strategy, initially implemented by Motorola. As of 2009 it enjoys widespread application in many sectors of industry. Six Sigma seeks to improve the quality of process outputs by identifying and removing the causes of defects (errors) and variability in manufacturing and business processes. It uses a set of quality management methods, including statistical methods, and creates a special infrastructure of people within the organisation ("Black Belts", "Green Belts" etc) who are experts in these methods. Each Six Sigma project carried out within an organization follows a defined sequence of steps and has quantified financial targets (cost reduction or profit increase).

We can add significant value to your "lean journey", identifying and selecting the best individuals with the behavioural and personal skills together with the technical Lean or Six Sigma toolkit to successfully bring about change. In addition to having the knowledge of Lean & Six Sigma tools and techniques, successful change agents must also have the ability to motivate, enthuse and encourage the owners of the process to take responsibility for change. It is imperative that the appropriate candidate selection is made with these skills in mind.

We are strongly supported by Integrated HR, an independent consultancy offering a range of tailored competency based assessment services to suit individual requirements - proven to yield higher levels of success than other selection processes.
