Voor een directe eindklant in Arnhem is Harvey Nash op zoek naar een Experienced Lean (Master) Black Belt

Start: z.s.m.

Duur: 6 maanden

Inzet: 40 uur per week

Client is facing a growing work load that in the last couple of years resulted in an equally growing number of employees. This growing need for more people cannot be matched by equally growing financial means in the (near) future. Given our social responsibility and according regulatory directives this is unacceptable.

Therefor we performed a LEAN scan at all 32 departments and 2 end-to-end processes. This scan focussed on increasing efficiency and enabling more work with the same amount of people, and thereby limit the employee growth rate. One of the extra goals was (and still is) to facilitate a fact based dialogue between Executive Board and (Sr.) Managers on how to best limit the workforce growth, increase speed, improve quality and develop a Continuous Improvement culture.

Black Belts

The LEAN scan resulted in an improvement plan for each department. Most of the departments defined LEAN improvement projects within their plans that preferably will be realised by own certified Green Belts (or Green Belts in training) supported by Black Belts. Some, more complex improvements must be managed by Power to Perform or external Black Belts.

The Black Belts that we are looking for are able to coach and deliver support to multiple green belts in their improvement assignments and/or to manage a complex improvement assignment themselves.

The program anticipates 120 improvement assignments until December 2018 executed by Green Belts requiring between 2 and 4h support per week over a 6 month period.

Budgeted on an average max of 72 hours (9 days) support per Assignment over the 6 Kaizen/Dmaic steps giving 9 days x 120 assignments = a total of 1080 days.

and 20 more complex assignments requiring some 12 to 16 days support.

Budgeted on an average of max 14 days x 20 assignments = a total of 280 days.

Black Belts are expected to manage and improve on required support.
