This role is a remote position with extensive travel supporting multiple southern locations. When not traveling, the individual must be located near one of the supported sites, with preferred availability in the Raleigh, NC or Atlanta, GA areas. Candidates must live within reasonable proximity to a major airport to effectively support site coverage.
Position Summary
This position drives, facilitates, and enables operational excellence through the implementation of comprehensive Continuous Improvement (CI) methodologies across Valmont sites. The goal is to achieve customer focus, simplicity, agility, and accountability while fostering a culture of continuous improvement at every level of the organization.
The Regional Continuous Improvement Manager identifies, communicates, and removes obstacles to performance, assisting teams in resolving conflicts to achieve optimal improvement. This role trains and coaches managers, supervisors, and staff in a broad range of CI tools and practices—including Kaizen, 5S, Value Stream Mapping (VSM), Six Sigma, Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), Standard Work, Kanban, SMED (Single Minute Exchange of Die), Theory of Constraints, and Voice of the Customer (VOC)—to deliver measurable results for the North American business.
Primary focus areas include generating and executing production savings, leading high-impact improvement projects, and mentoring leaders to embed CI principles into daily operations. The ultimate goal is to create a sustainable culture of continuous improvement that supports the productivity and strategic objectives of Valmont facilities in your assigned area.
Essential Functions
Facilitate and coach continuous improvement events and coordinate activities across teams, support groups, and management, while removing barriers to global performance.
Lead cross-functional teams in developing and improving business processes, architecture, requirements, change management, and performance metrics.
Diagnose workflow impediments and provide guidance on the appropriate CI methodologies (TPS Lean, Six Sigma, PDCA, DMAIC, Theory of Constraints) to eliminate waste and reduce variation.
Guide site leaders, managers, and CI practitioners in applying continuous improvement principles and leadership behaviors that build a culture of excellence.
Define and facilitate improvement activities using the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle and other CI frameworks aligned with the site’s strategic roadmap.
Continuously coach sites to drive improvements and improve standard work for the purpose of increasing customer value and operational agility.
Establish, track, and communicate CI-related metrics and clear reporting for stakeholders.
Determine resource requirements, training needs, and internal control procedures that align with organizational objectives.
Facilitate events such as TPM workshops, Standard Work design sessions, SMED quick-change projects, root cause analyses (RCA), and value stream transformations in both manufacturing and administrative areas.
Mentor and coach teams to navigate ambiguity, build problem-solving capabilities, and sustain improvements.
Work independently and collaboratively, building strong relationships at all organizational levels.
Serve as a customer-focused leader and change agent who moves the transformation process forward.
Organize and manage multiple priorities, meeting aggressive deadlines while maintaining high-quality standards.
Other Key Responsibilities
Partner with the Director of Operations to develop the Regional Continuous Improvement Roadmap, aligning CI initiatives with business goals and long-term strategy.
Promote the dissemination of CI knowledge throughout all levels of site staff through regular training in both a formal and informal setting and using teachable moments.
Identify training needs and support the development of CI capabilities across the organization.
