Take the technical lead of innovative projects and ensure industrial relevance
As a Technical Project Manager, you steer the execution of industry-driven technology research projects. Your project team is composed of experts from different backgrounds, technical domains, and different sites.
You will:
* Take the technical lead and encourage researchers to look for new solutions.
* Build a collective ambition for your projects with all stakeholders, i.e., the relevant user groups (Automotive and Machine Building Companies) and knowledge partners (Research Labs at Partner Universities);
* Strive for excellent execution and lead the project team;
* Ensure that project results are both industrially relevant and scientifically excellent.
In infrastructure projects, your team also builds research infrastructure.
A variety of topics can be combined throughout the years.
