Job Specifications

Freelance Manufacturing Project Manager (Electromechanical)

Project Description

Our client, a leading player in the manufacturing sector, is launching a strategic investment initiative to upgrade their production capabilities. This involves configuring, laying out, and implementing highly customized electromechanical manufacturing machinery, tailored to specific production needs and not off-the-shelf solutions. The project manager's goal is to connect all technical components and stakeholders to ensure a smooth and timely rollout of the project.

Responsibilities

Lead and manage the full lifecycle of the investment project, from planning and layout to implementation of new machinery.
Translate business objectives into actionable plans, timelines, and deliverables.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams including mechanical and technical engineers to ensure alignment across all project phases.
Coordinate installation and commissioning activities, ensuring machines are delivered and integrated effectively.
Monitor timelines, budgets, and resource allocation to ensure smooth execution.
Identify and manage project risks, resolving issues proactively.
Act as the communication bridge between technical teams and senior stakeholders, providing regular updates and clear reporting.

Requirements

Experience & Background:

Proven experience as a Project Manager in manufacturing or industrial environments.
Strong track record leading similar investment or machinery implementation projects.
Experience coordinating technical profiles, especially in electromechanical setups.
Pragmatic and hands-on approach; able to step in where needed without taking over execution.
Engineering or technical background preferred, but this is not a hands-on technical role.

Knowledge & Skills:

Solid understanding of manufacturing workflows and machinery integration.
Strong organizational, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
Able to "connect the dots" across different departments and disciplines.
English fluency is required; Dutch is a plus but not mandatory.

Contract Type: Freelance

Location: Turnhout

Start Date: ASAP

Contract Length: 6 Months

Onsite Policy: 4 Days Per Week

Languages: English (Dutch is a bonus)
