The organisation

International Food Manufacturing Company.

The position

The Global Strategic Projects Director - Operations monitors and drives the creation and execution of company-wide transformational strategic projects to ensure strategic, financial and operational objectives are achieved. The role reports to the Vice President Operations and is responsible to lead key strategic endeavours in the formulation, execution and monitoring of the company's strategic and operational plans for the 100+ international manufacturing locations. 

There are several projects and questions already in view for this role, but the company is a big fan of entrepreneurial professionals who actively look for opportunities for the company and make their viewpoints known. This creates an environment where common sense prevails over a system that's created from the top down and leaves a lot of room to bring your personality and experiences into the role.

The people who are very successful in this company bring a combination of strong professional views on their own role and combine this with an ability to connect with other professionals in the matrix organization. This company is not politically driven. It is however, a fast grower where a lot of work is to be done. By trusting your colleagues and knowing you are all working to grow the company, a very positive and motivated working environment is created.
