Selected Executive Mandate

Global Business Process & Automation Manager

Senior Management | Undetermined Contract Period

Business Process Transformation | Digital Automation | Global Manufacturing Operations

The Mandate

Hatwit International is conducting an Executive Search mandate for a well-established international industrial organisation.

The company is progressing through an important phase of operational and digital transformation, with increasing focus on process standardisation, automation and more scalable ways of working across its global operations.

Within this context, the Global Business Process & Automation Manager will play a key role in strengthening how business processes are designed, digitalised and implemented across the organisation.

The Role

The role sits at the intersection of business processes, technology and operational execution, working across shared services, corporate functions and manufacturing operations.

It combines responsibility for Business Process Management, Document Management and Enterprise Content Management, with a strong focus on translating business needs into structured digital workflows and automation solutions.

The Leadership Mandate

Drive the digitalisation and automation of business processes across the organisation.
Translate business and operational requirements into structured and scalable digital workflows.
Identify and prioritise opportunities for process simplification and automation.
Strengthen DMS / ECM and BPM capabilities across the relevant business processes.
Coordinate stakeholders across shared services, business functions, manufacturing operations and IT.
Support effective implementation, adoption and continuous process improvement.

Leadership Profile

We are looking for an experienced senior manager combining business process transformation capability with strong expertise in DMS / ECM, BPM and workflow automation.

The relevant profile should have experience working across complex organisations and be comfortable bridging business, operational and technology stakeholders.

Experience with DocuWare and/or JobRouter is particularly relevant, while comparable enterprise platforms may also provide a strong foundation.

We are particularly interested in candidates from industrial or manufacturing organisations, global or regional shared services environments, or technology providers implementing document and workflow solutions.

Hatwit Search Perspective

For this mandate, technology expertise alone is not sufficient.

We are looking for a senior professional who combines process thinking, automation expertise and an understanding of complex operating environments, with the ability to translate digitalisation initiatives into practical and sustainable business improvement.
