The Project Manager (PM) is a key role for the success of our automated storage systems sold to our customers.
The PM has the overall view of the projects to coordinate the assigned teams and tasks, ensuring the quality, schedule, and budget are being met, from the moment Sales transfers the sold project to Operations, until the full delivery of the system to our customer.
Responsibilities:
- Review in detail the transfer documents from sales dept, explain and share with the relevant involved parties (structural, robotics, controls. WMS Software, aftersales)
- Create the detailed schedule (using MS project and internal proprietary platforms), combining customer needs and milestones with design, manufacturing, transport, installation and commissioning internal tasks.
- Create the detailed budget, all the reporting, communications, and documents needed for the project.

- Coordinate the changes in material (complimentary orders and returns) and the scope change orders with contractors and customers.
