Job description

The company is an innovative development organization that, through 100% ownership by an international group, operates with a global perspective on its product development.

The company is a market leader within its industry, and its products are sold worldwide. It develops and produces mechanical and electronic solutions as well as associated IoT software. The Danish company employs around 80 people, while the international group employs approximately 7,000.

The company is now looking for an experienced Project Manager for a permanent position, who understands both product development and technology development projects.

The projects involve a high degree of stakeholder management and responsibility for driving products all the way to launch — including subsequent customer service.

The focus is not the technical core of product development itself, but rather the surrounding activities leading up to launch, such as approvals and certifications in different countries, packaging, logistics setup, and claims/reclamation processes.

The Project Manager will report to the Director of Development.
