The position
IFP Hillerød faces a more extensive and complex portfolio of projects initiated and executed over the coming years. Our production lines, which include the aseptic and finished production, are encountering several upgrades driven by the introduction of new products, optimization initiatives, compliance or discontinuance of hardware and software.

As our new Project Manager, you will be responsible for:

• Driving projects independently throughout their entire lifecycle within our aseptic production portfolio roadmap

• Projects in the portfolio are diverse and you should have a keen interest in IT/equipment/ and validation projects

• Planning, executing, and following up on all related tasks/processes related to scope, schedule, resources, cost, quality and project risk

• As a natural part of your projects, you will be in close dialogue with line of business and all levels of management on our production site, as well as external vendors

It is also expected that you will actively contribute with learnings and experiences with rest of the PMO team to mature and strengthen our ability to run projects more efficiently.

By becoming part of Novo Nordisk, you will get the opportunity to lead exciting and impactful projects and grow a team culture based on collaboration, curiosity, and high ambitions. We believe in talent development tailored to your needs and ambitions and will continuously invest in you and your professional development.

• Excellent communication skills with experience of working cross functionally and building relations with stakeholders at all organizational levels

• Professional proficiency in English

While prior experience in project management is highly valued, we recognize that there are numerous paths that may lead to excelling in this role. Therefore, we encourage candidates from diverse backgrounds to apply.

On a personal level, you are pro-active and thrive with driving tasks independently to the finish line. You have a structured approach to your work, and you can handle several tasks while prioritizing your efforts optimally by keeping the project goals in mind. You are adaptable and capable to work efficiently in constantly changing environment. You are a team player, and you can quickly build strong and meaningful relationships with your stakeholders.
 
About the department
You will be part of a dynamic and ambitious PMO, where our more than 20 Project Managers execute small to large projects across our production site. Our challenge is to execute an increasing portfolio of diverse projects and implementing new solutions with minimum impact on the ongoing production.
