• Ensure compliance with regulations, standards, and internal governance documents

• Coordinate stakeholders such as IT, production, security, suppliers, and external parties

In addition to your personal attributes, we require:

• Several years of experience in project management within IT, OT, or industrial environments

• Experience leading projects in controlled or regulated operations (e.g., pharmaceuticals, energy, manufacturing)

• Basic knowledge in cybersecurity, particularly related to industrial systems and the IEC62443 standard

• Experience with project models, risk management, change management, and stakeholder management
