Job Description
We are the movers of the world and the makers of the future. We get up every day roll up our sleeves and build a better world together. At Ford were all a part of something bigger than ourselves. Are you ready to change the way the world moves
PS&L is undergoing a massive transformation driven by technology renewal deep collaboration with Sales and an unrelenting march toward waste elimination in all its forms. The work will be fast paced in an unstructured environment where the path forward needs to be charted and driven by the team. It will require significant time investment this will not be a work the in box position.
In this position...
As we quickly accelerate the pace of change were finding we need to stand up a team that can quickly on board various projects define the challenge at hand turn data into information (the story the data tells) outline potential solutions and test with scrappy pilots that can be automated/mainlined in parallel.
We require much more than the classic Analyst role where the work is clearly defined and there is a Team Lead handing out assignments. We need people that are comfortable learning & logging into systems testing working with large datasets talking to customers and working on multiple projects at a time in white spaces. We need arms and legs capable of doing the work and determining what needs to be done next independently.
Being successful in this role will require an understanding of the systems and processes that drive modern supply chains the ability learn on the fly and a demonstrated ability to quickly come up to speed and start adding value in high pressure low clarity environments. One must have a deep desire to seek to understand and then a firm grasp of Plan Do Check Act. It will require keeping a pace that everyone will say is impossible to keep (yet weve shown time and time again actually is possible). This by design requires the highest levels of Drive for Results coupled with the ability to collaborate within and across teams.
