Support Capital Investment Initiatives - Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver successful outcomes on strategic investment projects.

Design for Manufacturability - Provide early input into product design to ensure ease of manufacture and assembly.

Standardise and Document - Develop and maintain standard operating procedures and technical documentation.
