What you will do – Key Responsibilities:

As a Senior Project Engineering Manager, you will lead the successful execution of engineering activities for complex HVDC projects, ensuring alignment with project goals in terms of schedule, cost, quality, and technical requirements.

• Own the end-to-end delivery of engineering activities of the PDG scope of works on large EPC projects, ensuring alignment with schedule, budget, and technical requirements.

• Lead and coordinate multidisciplinary engineering teams, ensuring that deliverables are integrated, consistent, and aligned with project milestones.

• Act as the technical lead within the project, driving decision-making and managing interfaces between engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, and customers.

• Establish and maintain effective communication with customers, partners, and suppliers on technical topics, ensuring transparency, responsiveness, and trust.

• Anticipate and manage risks by maintaining an up-to-date risk register, driving mitigation plans, and enforcing a structured change management process.

• Ensure high standards of quality and compliance, applying internal processes, safety (EHS) requirements, and industry best practices throughout the project lifecycle.

• Represent engineering in project governance, providing clear reporting on progress, issues, and KPIs, and contributing to key project reviews and decisions.

• Support site teams during execution, ensuring a smooth transition from design to construction and commissioning, and resolving technical issues efficiently.

• Mentor and empower project engineers, fostering a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement across the engineering organization.

• Carry our regular and thorough reviews of the progress and delivery of the PDG scope of work assessing all aspects of the project, including time, cost, quality, and risks.

Desired Profile and Experience:

• Engineering degree in Electrical, Power Systems, or a related field, i.e.: Electronics, Mechanical

• Extensive experience as Project Engineering Manager or similar role in EPC environments: Energy, Transmission, Distribution, Oil & Gas, Power Generation, or similar industries

• A minimum of 2 projects delivered, managing medium to large size projects.

• Strong project management skills and solid experience coordinating multidisciplinary teams and multiple stakeholders, ideally across international and multicultural environments.

• Strong understanding of engineering project lifecycles, risk management, technical interfaces, and configuration/change control.

• Excellent communication and leadership skills: able to influence, align teams, and represent engineering with confidence in internal and customer meetings.

• Fluent in English (German is an advantage).

• Comfortable with occasional travel (Europe and internationally) for project needs.

• HVDC experience is a strong asset, but not a prerequisite. We welcome candidates with relevant experience in similar large-scale infrastructure or industrial EPC projects who are eager to learn and contribute to the energy transition.
