- Suggest CI ideas and implement approved improvements to quality, efficiency, and consistency
- Communicate clearly with colleagues and relevant departments to maintain flow and standards
- Maintain excellent housekeeping and safe working practices at all times
- Support additional shop‑floor tasks where your skills are required
