(Senior) Manufacturing Consultant (m/w/d)

Why this role is right for you

You already have solid experience in manufacturing or industrial engineering and want to take 

the next step: more responsibility, broader project exposure, and the opportunity to shape real 

production systems.

In our Manufacturing Services team, you will work on hands-on factory and production projects, 

combining Lean methods, factory planning, and digital approaches. You will contribute your 

experience, deepen your expertise, and progressively take on more responsibility within 

customer projects.

This role is ideal for engineers who want to lead and deliver technical projects in a dynamic 

environment while remaining close to real industrial implementation.

What you will do

You will work closely with experienced colleagues and customers on production and 

assembly challenges, such as:

• Apply Lean Manufacturing methods (e.g. Value Stream Design, 5S, standardized 

processes) in production environments

• Analyze manufacturing systems to identify improvement potential across processes, 

layouts, capacities, and material flows

• Create and evaluate layout and value stream concepts, supported by data analysis and 

simulations where appropriate

• Develop production and assembly concepts (line design, workstation concepts, material 

supply)

• Prepare, facilitate, and support workshops, planning sessions, and improvement events

• Collaborate with management on strategies and ensure implementation on the shop 

floor

• Contribute to digitalization initiatives in manufacturing (e.g. data-supported planning, 

digital factory tools)

• Take responsibility in factory planning and production projects (brownfield & greenfield)

• Support industrialization and ramp-up phases, including stabilization and continuous 

improvement

Responsibilities and scope will grow naturally based on experience and project context —

supported by senior colleagues and project leads.
