As a Project Manager you are part of scoping the projects and you establish and continuously align deliveries with the client. Your key tasks are to ensure effective delivery of the right solutions in the right quality, according to the agreed budget and timeline. Furthermore, you are responsible for motivating your team and performing overall scope management of your project.

Profile

We are looking for a Senior Project Manager with proven experience and a great sense of ownership and drive

A project will normally include multiple technical disciplines such as mechanical design, hardware design, embedded software, application software and production, so preferably you have experience with one or more of these disciplines.

Our wishes to you:

  • You have a relevant education and a PMP or IPMA certification
  • You have a great commercial understanding
  • You are good at working closely with customers
  • You take ownership of the project and its successful execution
  • You are a motivating leader and you take an active part in the teamwork
  • You have the will and the abilities to succeed in a hectic environment.

We are looking for you, who has a highly collaborative approach and can work with various stakeholders across the organization.

As a person you possess a strong personal drive, have a sense of ownership, and can’t wait to see your product in space. You navigate naturally around a cross-disciplinary environment where solutions and deliveries are the result of effective collaboration.

You combine strong leadership skills with openness to input from colleagues, work to get the best out of your team and thrive with solving complex challenges. You communicate effectively on different organizational levels – both with technical and non-technical stakeholders. You are fluent in English speaking and writing. Furthermore, you are skilled in project management tools as JIRA or similar.

This is a unique carrer opportunity with a lot of influence

GOMSpace values initiative, responsibility and the right balance between creativity and quality in all solutions. You will become a part of a highly professional environment with a strong technical and commercial commitment.
