About the role

Senior Project Manager Manufacturing IT (MES / ERP) – Hands‑on | 80–100%

About

An international industrial company in a regulated environment is currently strengthening its Operations IT and is looking for a hands‑on Project Manager to drive digital transformation across manufacturing and supply chain.

This is not a coordination role.

This role is about execution, ownership and delivery.

Your responsibilities

  • Lead end-to-end digital transformation projects in manufacturing and supply chain
  • Drive implementation of data-driven production and logistics processes
  • Work hands-on on system integrations (ERP, MES, WMS, QMS)
  • Manage cross-functional teams across IT, engineering, production and supply chain
  • Handle multiple project streams in parallel
  • Ensure delivery in terms of timeline, budget and quality
  • Actively manage risks, dependencies and stakeholders
  • Support international rollouts and system implementations
  • Ensure compliance in a regulated environment

Your profile

  • Strong experience in digital transformation projects within manufacturing / supply chain
  • Hands-on mindset – you go beyond coordination and actively drive execution
  • Solid understanding of manufacturing IT systems (MES, ERP, WMS, QMS)
  • Experience in regulated environments (MedTech, Pharma, Life Sciences or similar) is a plus
  • Proven track record in delivering complex projects
  • Strong stakeholder management skills
  • Structured, pragmatic and solution-oriented
  • Fluent German, good English

What matters most

We are looking for someone who:

  • takes ownership
  • gets things done
  • is not afraid to go into the details
  • drives results instead of managing PowerPoint
