  • Project control of complex network and infrastructure projects

  • Coordinating project activities and forming an effective project team

  • Clear communication to clients regarding progress, risks, and necessary adjustments

  • Risk management and stakeholder management at the decision-maker level

  • Ensuring a smooth completion of projects, including handover to management and the client

  • Documenting and reporting based on agreed standards (e.g., via ServiceNow and Confluence)

About Quanza

  • Connecting,

  • Reliable and

  • Problem-solving.

What do you bring?

You are a project manager who brings overview, creates trust, and maintains course, even when projects involve multiple technical disciplines or political sensitivities. You switch easily between strategic thinking and tactical organizing, and you communicate clearly with both engineers and board members.
