Description

Do you want to help strengthen a sustainable and competitive industry in Värmland?

In the role of process leader, you work closely with member companies and drive development and change processes that create concrete impact in the business.

What you will do

As a process leader, you are responsible for independently mapping and initiating development and change initiatives at our member companies.

You coach and support managers and leaders in their change journey and help them turn ideas into structure, working methods, and results.

A large part of the role is meeting with member companies and potential new members, understanding their challenges, and identifying how IUC Värmland can contribute with the right support and initiatives.

The position is varied and you will never be bored! You combine relationship-building work with analysis, facilitation, and implementation of initiatives on-site in the operations.

We are looking for someone who

  • has a good understanding of production, industrial flows, and business development in manufacturing environments,
  • has a technical background or other experience deemed equivalent,
  • can conduct value stream analyses and translate insights into concrete improvement proposals,
  • has an understanding of Lean methodology as well as knowledge of tools such as Kaizen, OEE, SMED (meritorious),
  • has knowledge or interest in learning more about sustainability and how sustainability issues can be integrated into industrial development.


To succeed in the role, we believe you

  • are confident in running assignments independently and take responsibility for creating progress,
  • find it easy to build trust and foster good relationships with people at any level in an organization,
  • can quickly understand a company's current situation, challenges, and opportunities,
  • are flexible and thrive in a role where focus may shift between different assignments and operations,
  • are humble enough to ask for support when needed and enjoy working together with colleagues with complementary skills.
