Emirates Flight CateringSenior Manager - GLP & Inventory
AI in this role
Can you turn operational complexity into operational excellence?
At Emirates Flight Catering, we operate at scale — and behind every successful operation are strong systems, smart decisions, the right resources and a relentless focus on continuous improvement.
We are looking for an experienced Senior Manager – Operations Support & Excellence to help us take that to the next level.
This is a senior leadership role for someone who can look across a large and complex operation, understand what the data is telling us, challenge how things are done today and translate insight into measurable improvements.
What will you be leading?
You’ll take ownership of the Operations Support & Excellence function, with a broad remit spanning:
• Operational excellence, efficiency and continuous improvement
• Performance analytics, dashboards, KPIs and data-driven decision making
• LEAN processes and optimisation of cost and resources
• CAPEX, OPEX and manpower planning
• Technology enhancements and operational improvement projects
• Resource planning, deployment and utilisation
• SOPs, SLAs and operational standards
• Business continuity and operational resilience
• Customer communication, ERP transactions, billing and invoicing
• Training, capability building and succession planning
Just as importantly, you’ll lead a sizeable team and work closely with senior operational leaders and cross-functional stakeholders to identify opportunities, solve problems and continuously improve how we operate.
Who are we looking for?
You’ll bring a minimum of 8 years’ experience leading large-scale operational activities, ideally within logistics, catering and/or an airside environment, together with a strong track record of delivering operational efficiency initiatives and service improvements.
You should be comfortable working with both people and data — able to analyse complex information, identify what needs to change, influence stakeholders and turn ideas into practical solutions.
A Bachelor’s degree or equivalent qualification is required, with Lean Six Sigma highly desirable.
If you are someone who naturally asks “How can we do this better?” and has the leadership experience to turn the answer into action, we would like to hear from you.
Join us and help shape the next chapter of Operations Support & Excellence at Emirates Flight Catering.
