THE ROLE.
We’re looking for a proactive Continuous Improvement Analyst to support strategic initiatives that drive operational excellence across our distribution network. This role plays a key part in improving efficiency, reducing cost, and optimising performance across our logistics operations, working closely with internal teams and our third‑party logistics (3PL) partners.
If you’re passionate about process improvement, data‑driven decision making, and creating scalable, sustainable ways of working, this role offers the opportunity to make a tangible impact in a fast‑moving operational environment.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING.
As a Continuous Improvement Analyst, you will:
- Lead and support continuous improvement initiatives across the distribution network to drive operational excellence
- Partner closely with 3PL providers to align on performance objectives, share best practices, and deliver joint improvement projects
- Analyse current distribution processes using Lean, Six Sigma, and related methodologies to identify optimisation opportunities
- Work cross‑functionally with internal teams and external partners to streamline workflows, reduce waste, and improve service levels
- Develop, track, and report on KPIs to measure the effectiveness and impact of improvement initiatives across internal and 3PL‑operated sites
- Facilitate workshops, Kaizen events, and training sessions to embed problem‑solving and continuous improvement mindsets
- Support process standardisation and ensure consistent application across all distribution centres and partner operations
- Stay up to date with industry trends, tools, and emerging technologies to recommend innovative operational solutions
- Prepare and present progress updates and insights to senior stakeholders
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR.
This role could be a great fit if you bring:
- A Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management, Industrial Engineering, Business, or a related field
- 2+ years’ experience in operations, logistics, or supply chain roles with a focus on continuous improvement
- Lean Six Sigma certification (Green Belt or higher preferred)
- Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills, with experience using data analysis tools such as Excel, Power BI, or SQL
- Excellent communication, facilitation, and stakeholder management skills
- Proven ability to manage projects and influence across teams
- Experience working in a multi‑site distribution or logistics environment (highly desirable)
WHY THIS ROLE?
This is a great opportunity to grow your continuous improvement capability while influencing how our distribution network operates at scale. You’ll work closely with internal teams, external partners, and senior leaders to drive meaningful, measurable change — and help embed a culture of continuous improvement across the business.
This is a hybrid role and would require the successful candidate to attend at least 3 days a week at our HQ in Solihull.
