Are you stimulated by leading projects with an “end to end” responsibility? Then this position may be your next step!

We work with customized civilian product development projects, initiated by sales and marketing department.

You will be involved in a mix of collaborations and meet with different stakeholders, professionals, competencies and personalities. You will lead, prioritize, visualize, discuss and make plans and goals clear to your team. Working with continuous improvement is a natural part of our business, and with a proactive approach, you and your teams identify risks early and act on them.
