Process Improvement Analyst - Fixed Term Contract

About you

As a Lean practitioner you will have a number of completed projects in your portfolio that have delivered tangible benefits and change whilst delighting your customer. If this has been in the leasing or finance sectors, then so much the better. You will be a natural networker, able to build strong lasting relationships across all business areas and at all levels, to quickly understand business objectives and priorities. We need someone experienced in applying the principles of Lean, such as 5S, Visual Performance Management, A3 Problem Solving, Flow Management, Waste Reduction and Coaching. You will also be experienced in facilitating workshops to map current and future processes and have the analytical/statistical skills to make recommendations for improvement. Knowledge of Agile and/or Robotic Process Automation (RPA) would be icing on the cake!

Application process

Successful applicants will be invited via email to complete an automated online video interview so you can tell us all about yourself before we decide who to bring in for a final interview. This can be done on your mobile phone, tablet or laptop at any time of day so gives you complete flexibility. Full instructions and a Hints & Tips video will follow.

What’s in it for you?

Culturally, we are a friendly bunch - more human, than corporate. We expect a lot but know that works both ways so offer our Journey Makers a fantastic employee experience end to end.

All our offices are welcoming and refreshed to reflect our new ways of working in a post-COVID, forward thinking digital and hybrid setting. You will be given the perfect environment to do your work to the highest standards possible, as well as the opportunities to develop your own career.

You will be joining a family – where, together, we are all pushing the limits of what’s possible for our customers and for each other. We’re an excellent mix of new and longer serving Journey Makers, all working together to constantly improve the service we offer all our customers. Sharing experience, ideas and creative solutions is what we do best.

Being owned by a bank (BNP Paribas), not only are we part of global brand making a positive difference to the World, but we all benefit from some excellent perks.

This is a fixed term contract position running until the end of 2021. This is a Pay Zone B1role with a salary range of £35,000 to£43,000, an annual bonus of up to £1,725. You will also enjoy the standard benefits like Private Healthcare (AXA PPP), Life Assurance, a great Company Pension scheme, a range of personal flexible benefits, as well as the usual 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays), and access to great discounts on our products and services.

We’re also proud that we can offer you things that money just can’t buy:

• Progressive career development opportunities through our dedicated Learning and Development team. Check out our approach to learning here on our Dare2Discover intro film!
• Many opportunities to participate in CSR and Climate Sustainability action
• A huge range of volunteering days (we actively encourage our people to volunteer and participate in charity work)
• Hybrid working options (working in the office / at home or a remote location that suits your personal circumstance)
• Access to first class Mental Health support (onsite through our amazing MH First Aiders or through our dedicated MH support line)
• An array of Talent Development opportunities local (UK) and globally within Arval Group / BNP Paribas
• And an employee culture that is focussed on creating a great place to work for all our Journey Makers – whether you are here for a temporary stay or with us for a lifetime

We are proud to celebrate the diverse nature of our customers and our hugely diverse teams, where everyone feels safe to be their authentic self. We support all our local communities and groups and actively encourage people from underrepresented backgrounds to apply to become part of our family. We do not discriminate based on race, colour, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, marital status, disability or age – or any other category you can think of, and we have a strong “speak up” culture through which we support and ally with all group our Journey Makers identify with.

We are a family-friendly employer with a culture based on trust, autonomy and flexibility and believe everyone has a voice and the opportunity to make an impact.
