JOB DESCRIPTION
Our global network of 80+ laboratories is constantly evolving, because the world around us is always changing. We embrace this - we invest in improving our equipment and our skills so we're one step ahead of the market. One day we could be setting up a burn test and the next, simulating a tornado. And because we're always evolving, your career will evolve alongside us, whether you're working on brand new technology or connecting with experts around the globe. Join our team, drive the growth of our organization and deliver real change - in a changing world.
Shape the Future of EMC Laboratory Performance
At UL Solutions, our global network of laboratories supports some of the world's most innovative companies in bringing safe, compliant products to market. As technologies evolve and customer expectations continue to grow, our EMC laboratories play a critical role in helping manufacturers navigate increasingly complex regulatory and compliance requirements.
We're seeking an experienced EMC professional who has built their career within the laboratory environment and is ready to make a broader impact.
This is not a traditional operational management role. It is a unique opportunity to influence the strategy, performance, and success of EMC laboratories across the Asia-Pacific region. Working closely with laboratory leaders, regional management, commercial teams, and senior stakeholders, you will help shape how our EMC business operates, grows, and delivers value to customers.
We're looking for someone who combines deep EMC laboratory expertise with strong business judgement and commercial awareness. Someone who understands what makes a laboratory successful, knows how to engage stakeholders at all levels, and can guide teams through change to deliver measurable improvements in performance, customer engagement, utilisation, and profitability.
For the right individual, this role offers a natural progression from laboratory leadership into a highly visible global position with significant influence and long-term career growth potential.
The Opportunity
As Global EMC Operations & Strategy Manager, you will serve as a strategic partner to EMC laboratory leaders, helping them identify opportunities to improve operational effectiveness, customer experience, resource utilisation, and financial performance.
Drawing on your experience within EMC testing and laboratory operations, you will provide insights and leadership that help laboratories optimise performance while supporting sustainable business growth.
This role requires someone who can bridge the gap between technical operations and commercial strategy. You'll understand the realities of laboratory environments while also recognising the wider business drivers that influence investment decisions, customer retention, market growth, and profitability. Most importantly, you'll help bring people on a journey, building alignment across multiple teams and driving initiatives that deliver meaningful business outcomes.
