Qualifikationen

• Degree in Civil/Structural Engineering, Construction, or Business. A technical background is a strong plus.

• German and English — both fluent, non-negotiable.
• Background in pharmaceutical or life sciences CAPEX environments.
• Hands-on experience sourcing CSA packages (civil, structural, buildings).

• Strong negotiation and stakeholder influence

• Own the end-to-end tendering process — from supplier shortlisting to contract award.
• Lead commercial negotiations, including contract terms, framework agreements and pricing models.
• Get involved early with Engineering, Construction and Project teams so procurement shapes design decisions rather than reacting to them.
• Manage relationships with strategic contractors and track their performance over time.
• Identify cost-saving opportunities through benchmarking and value engineering.
• Anticipate and mitigate risks tied to construction execution — schedule slippage, cost overruns, HSE, and supply chain disruption.
• Keep every package aligned with GMP, EHS and construction regulatory requirements.
• Turn category-level strategy into concrete sourcing and execution plans for each project.
• Set up contractor performance monitoring and drive continuous improvement across the supply base
