Executive Search Consultant, Manufacturing

Executive Search Consultant & Global Supply Chain Talent Whisperer (But Cooler Than It Sounds)

You don’t do average. Neither do we.

At Lean Six Search, we’re not your typical executive search firm. No jargon-filled boardrooms or stiff collars pretending to understand what “transformation” really means. We live and breathe supply chain (the backbone of the global economy), and we partner with the powerhouses, the disruptors, and the unsung heroes who are rewriting the rules of how the world moves.

We’re a global leadership and talent consultancy built for people who crave the pace, the complexity, and the thrill of solving high-stakes problems. Our bread and butter? Board and executive search, CPO/CSCO succession, leadership advisory, and giving clients a strategic edge they didn’t know they needed.

Now we’re looking for another A-player to join the crew. Someone who can think like a CEO, research like a detective, write like a storyteller, and close like a closer. Someone who doesn't need micromanaging because they’ve got taste, grit, and follow-through.

What You’ll Actually Do (Because Titles Are Just Titles)

Client & Project Leadership

• Lead and own multiple search assignments across supply chain, procurement, and ops. We’re not talking junior-level logistics gigs... we’re placing the people who run $10B supply networks.
• Take the wheel on kick-offs, pitch decks, psych assessments, and game-changing placements. This is high-touch, high-impact work.
• Build role specs that aren’t recycled fluff. You’ll define what success looks like and find the human needle in the industrial haystack.
• Be the calm in the chaos, managing deadlines, navigating clients, and still making it look easy.
• You’ll get face time with the people who shape industries. And when you talk, they’ll listen, because you’ll know your stuff.

Grow the Business (and Yourself)

• Partner with our senior team to hunt new business, shape proposals, and bring in mandates that matter.
• Spot trends, anticipate client needs, and always be a few steps ahead of the market.
• Mentor the next wave of search assassins. Share what you know, build others up, and leave a legacy inside this firm.
• Help shape who we are. The culture. The vibe. The why. You’re not just clocking in... you’re helping build the machine.

Knowledge is Power

• Build a brain trust inside your corner of the supply chain world. Whether it’s cold chain, pharma, direct materials, or digital transformation, you’ll own it.
• Share what you learn. Push insight. Bring firepower to the rest of the team and to clients.
• We’re a team that actually collaborates, so bring your curiosity and contribute to a knowledge base that goes deeper than Google.

You, in a Nutshell

• You’ve got a degree and can communicate like a pro (verbally, in writing, maybe even interpretive dance, we’re open).
• You’ve worked in international settings or fast-paced professional services environments. If you’ve battled in a blue-chip firm or a scrappy startup, we’re listening.
• You can research, write, and think with precision. You notice details others miss.
• You're allergic to mediocrity. You run toward complexity. You finish what you start.
• You’re digitally fluent... Office, LinkedIn, search tools, AI, and CRMs. You know the tech isn’t the job, but it makes the job smarter.

Why Lean Six?

• Global exposure. We’re working with clients from Dubai to Düsseldorf, Singapore to São Paulo.
• Growth. Leadership training. Real career tracks. This isn’t a “wait your turn” culture. You earn it, you move.
• Autonomy meets camaraderie. We trust you to get it done, but we’ve also built a culture where people have each other’s backs.
• Remote flexibility meets in-person badassery. Global retreats, team builds, and unexpected friendships.
• Work on meaningful searches. With smart, driven people. For clients who value what we bring.

If you’re tired of roles that feel like reskinned templates or you're stuck somewhere playing it safe, this is your call to jump.

We don’t just find leaders. We build them.
