The Position
As a Project Manager for Filling Technical Support, you will play an essential role in successfully implementing our projects, especially during high-demand periods, and will also share equipment responsibilities with the rest of the team.
 

The ideal candidate will be responsible for overseeing and managing the technical aspects of filling technical support within various projects, ensuring they align with project objectives and requirements. Your responsibility will be to drive the Work-Package deliverables, while supporting the overall project goals of delivering an optimum solution in a time frame that challenges the traditional approach.

• Identify, manage, and mitigate technical risks associated with filling operations and equipment, providing proactive solutions to unforeseen challenges, managing changes coming into the established baseline while evaluating the respective project impacts.
• Lead and support technical teams in resolving filling-related technical issues, optimizing processes, ensuring adherence to project timelines, including equipment-related tasks and responsibilities, and support activities revolving around various engineering and validation gates like FAT, SAT, IQ/OQ, etc.

Our team works together with many stakeholders, such as Quality Assurance (QA) and other support teams, so you will gain a broad network across the organisation.

While supporting the overall program in reaching major milestones, you will have your own sub-projects and equipment responsibility that you will be driving to completion with your chief resources.

• A flair for leadership and the ability to create results in a global stakeholder landscape.
• A quality mindset and a drive to create the “right” solutions while challenging the status quo supported with data.
• Experience with aseptic process production design and GMP is considered a big advantage, but not a must. 
• Strong understanding of filling equipment, processes, and technical requirements.

As an individual, you are skilled at establishing relationships. You are proactive, solution-oriented and knowledge sharing is natural to you. You work systematically and are committed to your work and your colleagues. Additionally, you are naturally good at collaborating and communicating, also across professional groups, you can manage a high workload at times without losing sight and you have a can-do mindset. Finally, you embrace professional and personal diversity.
