In addition to your technical skills, we are looking for you to have the following qualities:

• The ability to see the big picture, be analytical and work in a structured way
• A coaching leadership style and an interest in developing both people and business
• Good collaboration skills and used to building strong relationships in a technically complex environment

Your tasks:

• Lead and distribute the daily work within the team
• Monitor and ensure that production meets safety requirements, production and quality targets
• Initiate and drive improvement efforts for increased efficiency and development

Your contribution:

It is meritorious if you have experience of commissioning a new plant and knowledge and experience of Lean production.
