In addition, you will work in cooperation with our worldwide network of consultants to shape McKinsey's thinking in this area, continuously developing your own knowledge, as well as that of the firm. Some examples of the type of work you will do as a manufacturing consultant include: designing operating and production systems; driving and supporting the implementation of lean improvement activities on the shop floor and along the value stream; improving the energy efficiency of manufacturing operations; building and enhancing quality systems; building lean manufacturing capabilities in client organizations; optimizing global networks of manufacturing facilities.
