What we're looking for
- Education: Master's degree in Mechanical, Process, or Chemical Engineering.
- Experience: 8+ years of industrial project management experience, with proven ownership of on-site execution and plant construction.
- Execution & Problem-Solving: Strong hands-on troubleshooter skilled at resolving site clashes, contractor bottlenecks, and operational challenges under pressure.
- Technical & Commercial Expertise: Solid background in process systems, piping/P&IDs, and constructability, paired with Capex/P&L control, contract management, and asset closeout.
- HSES & Communication: Uncompromising safety mindset with assertive coordination, leadership, and stakeholder management skills.
Languages
- Languages & Mobility: Fluent in English (written and spoken); willing to travel across Northern & Central Europe countries as project phases require.
The role
Within the framework of Air Liquide policies and contract commitments (including HSES, quality, time & cost), the Owner's Project Manager is fully accountable for end-to-end project delivery-meeting contractual requirements, quality standards, schedule milestones, and overall cost effectiveness-as well as project Profit & Loss (P&L).
We are seeking an experienced, hands-on professional with deep expertise in project execution and on-site technical problem-solving. In this role, you will represent the asset owner, directing all project activities, managing cross-functional resources, driving contractor performance, and ensuring both internal stakeholder and client satisfaction from early development through field execution, handover, and final asset capitalization.
What you'll do
- End-to-End Delivery & P&L: Lead and execute industrial projects from development to closeout, taking full accountability for HSES, quality, schedule, budget/P&L, and client satisfaction in line with Air Liquide policies.
- Gate Governance & Stakeholder Alignment: Lead Project Steering Committees to secure Stage-Gate approvals and maintain transparent reporting across all key stakeholders.
- Engineering & Procurement: Define technical specifications, work packages, and redlined drawings/P&IDs; review vendor documents and coordinate equipment procurement and subcontractor packages.
- Field Execution & Problem Solving: Supervise on-site construction, conduct surveys to optimize piping/cabling layouts, and resolve technical bottlenecks and site clashes swiftly to avoid delays.
- Change Management & Financial Closeout: Steer the MOC process, control project budgets/credits, and ensure seamless asset capitalization (e.g., closing credits in Wilie Credit, settling open POs/invoices).
- Handover & Continuous Improvement: Ensure complete as-built documentation transfer to operations and capture lessons learned to elevate regional standards.
