Senior Project Manager

Push your limits - literally!

Managing impressive and complex projects all over the world. As a Senior Project Manager, the world is literally at your feet. Are you looking for a varied position where you manage multiple projects simultaneously and continuously challenge yourself? Push your boundaries at a global A-player in the field of storage systems.

This is NEDCON

NEDCON is a global player in the field of storage systems. From manual warehouse racking and semi-automatic systems to an integrated approach for complex and automated warehouse equipment.We design, manufacture, supervise, assemble and install these systems all over the world. And we have been doing so since 1969. 

With a team of more than 500 colleagues, spread over three locations in the Netherlands, the United States and the Czech Republic, we install impressive projects around the world that are getting bigger and therefore more complex. We are committed to delivering the (mostly) fully automated systems to our international customers on schedule, on budget and to the highest quality.

With us you play in the Champions League, work-wise that is. Because the atmosphere within our company feels more like a team of friends. Many colleagues built NEDCON themselves and are still working there. That creates a family feeling, in which new colleagues are welcomed with open arms. 

Our head office is located in Doetinchem. So expect us to have a down-to-earth, no-nonsense mentality. Making beautiful things together, that's what we do at NEDCON!

Your job

In the position of Senior Project Manager, you are ultimately responsible for assigned projects in the System Integrators department. In practice this means that you are responsible for several projects simultaneously. This responsibility starts the moment the order is awarded to us and one of our Account Managers hands the project over to you. You are the link between our client, end customer and suppliers. You monitor the progress and coordination of projects and maintain a good relationship with our clients. You also take into account criteria such as scope, budget, time and quality at all times. You also bear responsibility for the financial management of assignments.

Your duties in a nutshell:

  • Monitor the progress and coordination of projects
  • Maintain a good relationship with our customers
  • Managing an average of 3 to 5 employees reporting to you per project
  • Taking responsibility for financial control of assignments
  • Coaching and mentoring other (junior) colleagues
