About the Role
We’re looking for a Logistics Transformation Manager to help shape the future of how we move, store and deliver the products that bring our brands to life around the world.

You’ll bring both strategic insight and hands-on problem-solving, working across functions to improve efficiency, unlock innovation, and deliver transformation at scale.
As a Transformation Manager you will:
- Drive transformation across logistics operations, from supplier to customer, delivering sustainable improvements in efficiency and effectiveness.
- Act as a subject matter expert in logistics best practices, integrating your knowledge with related disciplines to deliver cross-functional success.
- Lead and influence projects with moderate scope and risk, collaborating across global teams to deliver measurable outcomes.
- Solve complex challenges by applying fresh perspectives and innovative approaches to existing processes.
- Act as a trusted advisor and resource for colleagues, sharing expertise to build capability across the team.
