Global Operations Director, Enzymes

THE CHALLENGE
As part of a major organisational restructure, the company was moving to a model that globalised operations around specific technology lines. Within this shift there was a critical need to appoint a Global Operations Director for Enzymes. This required a leader with both deep technical expertise and strong operational management skills to oversee enzyme manufacturing at scale.
The challenge lay in finding an individual who could bridge these requirements while driving global consistency, transformation, and excellence across manufacturing sites.
THE SOLUTION
Miramar conducted detailed market mapping of both major competitors and analogous sectors, ensuring visibility of the very best leaders with the required combination of operational and technical expertise.
By taking a broad yet targeted approach, we ensured the client had access to a pool of candidates who could deliver not just operational oversight but also play a critical role in the strategic transformation of global enzyme manufacturing.
THE RESULT
The search resulted in the successful appointment of a world-class operations leader with both technical and manufacturing expertise, which was precisely the combination that had been missing within the organisation.
The impact
With this leader in place, the company has been able to accelerate its transformation in enzyme manufacturing, driving global alignment, improved operational performance, and enhanced capability to meet evolving customer demands.
