Project Manager — Laboratories / Offices / Warehouse / Site Infrastructure
PURPOSE
The Project Manager — Laboratories / Offices / Warehouse / Site Infrastructure is accountable for the planning and delivery of support-facilities and site-development scope within a greenfield API and DP manufacturing campus.
Reporting to the API / DP Greenfield CapEx Project Lead, the role leads the assigned scope from design development through procurement coordination, construction, commissioning, qualification where applicable, and operational handover.
