A Snapshot of Your Day
This position is being added to ensure business continuity for the crane less (Liftra) heavy lift program, a key initiative for reducing operational costs and improving project efficiency. The program leverages specialized equipment to execute heavy lift jobs, aiming to lower mobilization and weather-related expenses, maximize the return on CAPEX investments, and reduce overall OPEX. To achieve these objectives, this senior project management role will focus on three core areas: comprehensive program and financial management, technical and safety oversight of crane less operations, and cross-functional collaboration to drive continuous improvement. This structure ensures dedicated leadership for the program's strategic, operational, and financial success. Given the focus on specialized heavy lift technology and financial performance, the ideal candidate has extensive experience in technical project management, preferably within the wind energy sector. The role requires proven expertise in managing large, complex projects, overseeing budgets (CAPEX/OPEX), implementing safety and quality protocols, and leading continuous improvement initiatives.
