Are you an experienced manager looking for a new challenge? Do you have a passion for leading teams with proactive leadership and a people mindset? Would you like to join a team with great teamwork spirit, delivering excellent project management?

If yes, then this is your opportunity as Novo Nordisk is seeking a Manager for Corporate Facilities (CFa) Project Team 2. Apply today for a life-changing career

The position

As a Manager, you will lead a team of 11 project managers, overseeing a portfolio of projects from 0-500 MDKK within building envelope, HVAC in office buildings, infrastructure, security, and supporting facilities like parking garages and canteens. You will collaborate with operating departments, local service centers, and other relevant departments in Novo Nordisk to ensure successful project design, execution, and handover. Standardizing all project phases and focusing on operational readiness is essential. Additionally, you will drive a professional project management office, ensuring continuous professional development of the project team, and driving talent development and succession.

Main Responsibilities:

  • Oversee and maintain a diverse project portfolio within building envelope, HVAC, infrastructure, security, and supporting facilities, and run cross-functional projects, supporting key decisions and milestones.
  • Plan, organize, and control resources and processes to achieve project objectives within scope, time, quality, and budget constraints.
  • Organize project teams, assign responsibilities, develop schedules, and determine resource requirements.
  • Provide clear goals and purpose for the project and team members to ensure effective use of time and resources.
  • Create effective and transparent systems, structures, and processes to drive projects with clarity and order.

Managing stakeholder relations, including providing the CFa Leader team, Site Coordination Forums, and House Owner's Associations with reliable information and business analyses is a key part of your role.

Qualifications

To succeed in this role, you have a minimum of 3-5 years of managerial experience in a similar position, with the ability to mentor and transfer skills to employees to help them in their development.

Other success criteria are:

  • Excellent cooperative skills and know how to communicate thoughts and ideas both in writing and verbally.
  • Ideally, solid experience in the construction industry.
  • Ability to create results through personal drive, commitment, effectiveness, and open management.
  • Great communication skills with all levels in the organization, and fluency in both spoken and written English.
  • High level of energy and perseverance, and the ability to stay focused under pressure.

As a person, you possess strong cross-functional leadership skills, including the ability to build and maintain relationships and trust with internal and external stakeholders. Your supplier relationship skills allow you to be constructively demanding of suppliers' performance. Additionally, you have solid analytical skills, practical experience in analyzing complex topics, and high-level technical and financial knowledge. Finally, your strong interpersonal and negotiation skills, combined with a diplomatic approach, drive successful outcomes.

About the department

In Corporate Facilities, with over 350 employees, we enable Novo Nordisk to focus on the core business by delivering simple and agile solutions for infrastructure, workplaces, utilities, and facility services as well as a major building portfolio. We create tangible business results by partnering with all areas of the business, and what we do impacts all of Novo Nordisk's employees in their workday. We give a high level of responsibility from day one, and you will experience a continuously steep learning curve, where your aspirations set the boundaries.

This position is based in Bagsværd; however, the job involves activities across our Danish sites. The team manages a large portfolio of maintenance, replacement, and expansion projects with various complexity and sizes, across all Danish sites. The environment is relaxed and welcoming. We are very aware of supporting each other, and even though many of your colleagues will be looking your way for answers, you will not be on your own with either challenges or victories.

Working at Novo Nordisk

Novo Nordisk is its people. We know that life is anything but linear and balancing what is important at different stages of our career is never easy. That's why we make room for diverse life situations, always putting people first. We value our employees for the unique skills they bring to the table, and we work continuously to bring out the best in them. Working at Novo Nordisk is working toward something bigger than ourselves, and it's a collective effort. Novo Nordisk relies on the joint potential and collaboration of its more than 40,000 employees. Together, we go further. Together, we're life-changing.

Contact

For further information, please contact Project Director Jonas Damgaard Westhon at 30 77 75 11, and Vice President Rune Fredericia at 30 79 71 38 during week 6 & 7.

Deadline

17 February 2025.

Kindly note that we will conduct 1st interviews on 21st February.

We commit to an inclusive recruitment process and equality of opportunity for all our job applicants.

We are therefore committed to creating an inclusive culture that celebrates the diversity of our employees, the patients we serve, and the communities we operate in. Together, we're life-changing.
