As a Supply Chain Performance Expert specializing in Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), your mission is to challenge, improve, and elevate operational performance across a multi‑country or regional scope. You will drive the deployment, standardization, and sustainability of TPM practices as a core element of the Schneider Performance System (SPS), boosting equipment reliability, building workforce capability, improving industrial cost performance, and strengthening end‑to‑end supply chain efficiency.
This role is both strategic and hands‑on, requiring strong technical expertise, the ability to coach and influence across multiple levels, and a passion for continuous improvement.

Key mission elements include:

• Leading the TPM program rollout across regional sites.
• Building organizational capability through training, coaching, and on‑the‑gemba support.
• Designing and deploying standards and best practices that enable consistency and scalability.
• Challenging performance baselines and improvement plans to secure measurable business results.
• Leveraging Smart & Digital tools to accelerate TPM execution and supply chain performance.

Areas of expertise include: TPM, SPS, process design, equipment performance, ergonomics, continuous improvement, simulation tools, cost analysis, capacity analysis, and industrial performance.

• Key Responsibilities- Lead the deployment of the TPM Program across multiple manufacturing sites, ensuring alignment with SPS and regional strategic priorities.
• Standardize TPM methodologies, tools, and practices to ensure repeatable, consistent, and sustainable results.
• Develop model TPM plants and enable progressive scaling across the region.
• Build organizational capability by training, coaching, and certifying practitioners, associates, and subject‑matter experts in TPM.
• Act as a regional challenger for performance, governance, priorities, and execution discipline of TPM pillars (People, Machine, Cost).
• Promote adoption of digital solutions, maintenance systems, and performance analytics to accelerate TPM maturity.
• Formalize and deploy benchmarks, standards, and best practices across sites.
• Ensure TPM contributes directly to improvements in Safety, Quality, Delivery, Cost, and People development.
  Main Activities

Performance & Opportunity Assessment- Identify and quantify improvement opportunities in maintenance performance (OEE), workforce (Headcount), and cost (Spend).

• Lead TPM or Continuous Improvement (CI) events when skills are missing or when additional expertise is required.
• Conduct deep dives on equipment losses, maintenance systems, skill gaps, and operational bottlenecks across the end‑to‑end value stream.
• TPM Implementation & Coaching- Facilitate and support TPM pillar activities (Autonomous Maintenance, Preventive Maintenance, Kobetsu Kaizen).
• Lead coaching sessions, audits, and maturity assessments at site level.
• Support the implementation of Kaizen events, root cause analysis, and rapid improvement actions.
• Continuous Improvement & Standards- Contribute to the creation and deployment of regional TPM standards, playbooks, and training materials.
• Ensure all TPM practices are consistent with Schneider Performance System (SPS) principles.
  Cross‑Functional Impact
  Support plant and regional teams in meeting critical operational objectives:
• Safety: Promote a zero‑accident mindset through autonomous maintenance and equipment reliability.
• Quality: Strengthen process robustness, defect prevention, and changeover optimization.
• Delivery: Improve OTD through reduced losses, downtime, and bottlenecks.
• Cost: Increase efficiency, optimize maintenance spend, and eliminate waste.
• People: Build competencies and develop TPM skills across the organization.
  Leadership of Strategic Events- Animate and engage the regional TPM Community through webinars, trainings, and share‑and‑learn sessions.
• Expected Impact
• Establishment of model TPM sites and a clear regional scaling roadmap.
• Significant improvements in Equipment Reliability (OEE), Maintenance Cost (Spend), and Workforce Efficiency (Headcount optimization).
• Measurable progress in TPM maturity across the region.
• Strong capability growth through certifications, coaching, and the development of TPM experts.

What will make you successful:

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Supply Chain, Industrial Management, or related field is required
• 5+ years of experience in manufacturing, industrial performance, maintenance, or continuous improvement.
• Demonstrated experience deploying TPM or similar methodologies (Lean, Six Sigma, CI).
• Strong analytical skills in cost analysis, capacity modeling, and operational performance.
• Experience coaching and influencing leaders and frontline teams across multiple sites.
• Knowledge of Smart & Digital manufacturing tools (CMMS, analytics dashboards, monitoring systems).
• Ability to travel across regional sites as required.

We know skills and competencies show up in many ways and can be based on your life experience. If you do not necessarily meet all the requirements that are listed, we still encourage you to apply for the position.
