The Ideal Candidate

operations by helping analyze, refine, and implement more efficient business processes across
departments, using business applications, automation, and digital tools.

The role combines business process awareness with digital execution capability, grounded in Lean
thinking and continuous improvement. The emphasis is on steady, incremental progress (getting

Governance, Continuity & Good Practice
- Maintain clear documentation of workflows, automations, and system changes
