  • Driving change across the organization - working at a high level to identify process gaps across the operation by owning operational excellence, and driving strategy & lean labor, food, subcontracting and supply management initiatives outside of pure operational environments.
  • Managing opportunities for a robust pipeline of innovations and initiatives that achieve growth and productivity expectations.
  • Supporting the business to improve and simplify existing processes and ensure capability of the new ones to drive reliability, predictability and efficiency while making the best use of available resources.
  • Providing leadership to ensure contract compliance and management through client guarantees management & tracking, CPI management & reporting/tracking and yearly amendments.
