Senior Manager - Operations Management Consulting, Manufacturing at DSS+

Allow us to introduce ourselves.

At dss+, we are not just your average operations consulting firm; we are implementers and change makers. Our passion lies in engaging organisations to craft resilient and sustainable business, guiding them through transformational changes in safety, risk and resilience and through their energy transition. We take the complex world of risk and sustainability and translate it into actionable roadmaps that work with our clients’ business. We implement, working side-by-side with our clients to deliver real, tangible results.

dss⁺ services fall into three core areas—operational risk management, operational excellence and sustainability—each bolstered by learning, development and culture change solutions and digital technologies. Teams around the globe work with clients in metals and mining, chemicals, oil and gas, power and utilities, agriculture, food and beverage, industrial and manufacturing, and private equity.

We pride ourselves in combining industry experts and on the ground experience with strong people-centric change management capabilities. This creates the perfect blend to support our clients from intent to impact, enabling them to protect what they care for, transform their organisation, and sustain the changes required to make their vision a reality, in a practical actionable way.

What will we offer?

We have a strong growth trajectory, which means unprecedented opportunity for the people on our teams. You are comfortable in a ‘start-up’ environment, have a positive can-do attitude and are comfortable with ambiguity. You are able to adapt and pivot quickly depending on the needs of the moment whilst still maintaining a focus on the long-term goal. At the same time, you understand the need for rigour, process and consistency which come from being part of an established global organisation.

In return, dss⁺ assures that you will have the opportunity to thrive in a fast-paced, rapidly growing consulting environment. You can build capabilities while delivering exceptional services, and really have an impact. That’s something to be proud of! Our unique, flexible working model allows our employees to combine a work life balance by working from home and travelling as needed.

This role is home-based in France but will require frequent client travel, potentially up to 4 days per week.
