Solutions Design Consultant

We are seeking a Solutions Design Analyst to support the strategic development, expansion, and new-build projects across our business. This role plays a key part in shaping investment decisions by designing, modelling, and validating solutions that support business growth and operational efficiency
.

Unlike a traditional CI (Continuous Improvement) role that focuses on refining existing processes, this role requires a forward-thinking,
strategic mindset
—one that can work with limited or incomplete data and apply logical assumptions to develop robust business cases
.

You will be responsible for supporting the development of new opportunities
, conducting feasibility studies, and modelling different expansion scenarios, helping senior stakeholders make data‑driven investment decisions.

• Support the design and evaluation of new developments, site expansions, and infrastructure projects, ensuring feasibility and alignment with business goals.
• Develop cost‑benefit and scenario models to compare expansion options and support capital investment decisions.
• Assess operational, financial, and strategic implications of new sites, facilities, and capacity expansions.
• Provide input into key customer tenders, particularly where they relate to new capacity, site expansions, or development projects.

• Prepare structured, data‑driven business cases for new builds, upgrades, and strategic investments.
• Work closely with Finance, Operations, and Strategy teams to ensure accurate, aligned data assumptions and forecasts.
• Present recommendations in a clear, compelling way to influence senior decision‑makers.

• Build Excel‑based models, using existing data where available and supplementing it with external logic, benchmarks, and assumptions when data is incomplete.
• Identify key value drivers, risks, and sensitivities in business case models.
• Challenge existing assumptions and bring fresh thinking to investment and design decisions.

• Work with diverse stakeholders across Europe, including senior leadership, Finance, Operations, Commercial, and external consultants.
• Engage with cross‑functional teams to gather insights, validate assumptions, and ensure solutions are practical and aligned with business needs.
• Present findings in a clear, visually engaging way so that non‑technical stakeholders can quickly understand the implications.
• Build financial models and operational forecasts to support investment and capacity decisions.
• Use Excel (advanced level) for scenario planning, sensitivity analysis, and data interrogation.
• Where relevant, use visualisation tools to translate complex analysis into simple, actionable insights.
• Collaborate with teams across different European markets.
• Travel within Europe as required to assess sites, meet stakeholders, and support project execution.

• Background or strong exposure to strategy, expansion planning, logistics network design, or operational growth projects.

• Able to make logical assumptions, use external insights, and still maintain clarity on risks and sensitivities.
• Experience building models for capital investments, expansion scenarios, and cost‑benefit analysis.

• Advanced proficiency in Excel for modelling, data analysis, and scenario planning.

• Able to turn complex analysis into clear, structured, engaging messages for senior stakeholders.

• Strong interpersonal skills and confidence working across functions and levels.

• Open to European travel Denmark/Sweden/Norway/Belgium/France/The Netherlands/Ireland for site visits, stakeholder meetings, and project assessments.

• Experience with Power BI, SQL, or other data visualization tools
• Background in infrastructure planning, supply chain, or logistics solutions
• Exposure to market research, financial forecasting, or investment modelling

• A fun dynamic team
• Be at the forefront of major expansion…
