BA - Operational Excellence and Transformation
London, United Kingdom | req2195 Posted: 20/01/2025 - Application Deadline: - About Baringa: We set out to build the world’s most trusted consulting firm – creating lasting impact for clients and pioneering a positive, people-first way of working. We work with everyone from FTSE 100 names to bright new start-ups, in every sector.
You’ll find us collaborating shoulder-to-shoulder with our clients, from the big picture right down to the detail: helping them define their strategy, deliver complex change, spot the right commercial opportunities, manage risk, or bring their purpose and sustainability goals to life. Our clients love how we get to know what makes their organisations tick – slotting seamlessly into their teams and being proudly geeky about solving their challenges.
As a Certified B Corporation, we've proven that we've built social and environmental good into every bit of what we do.
We have hubs in Europe, the US, Asia and Australia, and we work all around the world - from a wind farm in Wyoming to a boardroom in Berlin. Find us wherever there's a challenge to be tackled and an impact to be made.

Supporting our cross-functional corporate teams to evolve their ways of working and management practices to facilitate adoption, as they transition from manual delivery towards an increasingly automated and AI-integrated operation. Helping define traceable KPIs and reporting structures to baseline and measure outcomes delivered during the transformation journey. Building capability within our internal teams to support them to improve operational performance, future-proof their operations and build sustainable capability making data-driven decisions. Regularly communicating project progress to stakeholders including Leadership Teams, project champions and team members. Utilising project management tools to track and communicate progress, ensuring all team members are aligned.
Your skills and experience Understanding and sizing operational challenges and inefficiencies, driving people, data and process improvements. Experience identifying, validating and scoping opportunities for non-technical and technology-enabled process optimisation, including implementation of automation, AI technologies and eliminating failure demand within end-to-end process transformation. Experience enabling successful design, adoption, and ways of working changes of rapid operationally focused improvements that deliver incremental benefit with a change management mindset. The ability to translate and roll up, individual problem statements and improvements into the big-picture of a multi-year transformation programme both quantitatively and qualitatively. Ideally through having done this in 2+ multi-year transformations previously. Experience with project management and Lean Six Sigma. Refining operational and leadership KPIs to enhance performance visibility across a transformation programme’s delivery and beyond. Strong written, data visualisation and verbal communication skills.
