About the Role /n Kimirica Hunter International is building out its Business Excellence function — covering Operational Excellence, Quality, Process Governance, and continuous improvement across the Wet and Dry Plants. We're looking for a Junior Executive to support the OE Lead in driving hands-on improvement work: time studies, 6S, Kaizen, KPI tracking, and process documentation.

/n

- Completes at least one MOST time study independently, reviewed and signed off by the OE Lead

/n

- KPI trackers are accurate and updated without prompting ahead of the monthly review

/n /n /n Why Join This Team /n This is a ground-floor opportunity to grow with a newly established Business Excellence function, working directly under the OE Lead with real exposure to plant operations, cross-functional projects, and leadership reviews.
