At Malvern Panalytical, we are looking for a Global Commercial SBS Leader to embed the Spectris Business System (SBS) across our commercial organisation, including Sales & Applications, Marketing, and Service.
SBS has delivered significant success in operational environments where work is highly visible. The next stage of our journey is bringing the same structure, discipline, and continuous improvement mindset into commercial value streams to enhance pipeline quality, pricing performance, launch execution, service delivery, and customer outcomes.
Reporting to the Global VP of Sales & Applications, you will work closely with commercial leaders to deploy SBS across the organisation in line with an agreed maturity roadmap. This is a highly hands-on role where you will facilitate Kaizen events, coach leaders, and help teams build sustainable improvement capabilities. Success will be measured by the extent to which commercial leaders and teams fully embrace and own the system.
The role is remote based within Europe and requires approximately 30–50% international travel
