Make Innovation Real!
At Borealis, we are committed to "Value Creation through Innovation". More than 500 R&D talents in our three European Innovation Centers are constantly working on providing intelligent and sustainable solutions to the challenges faced by society. The transformation of the plastics economy from linear to circular is at the core of our strategy. Our commitment to Innovation is also reflected in our consistent recognition by the European Patent Index as one of the leading innovators in Austria, ranked number one for 2023.
In short: Innovation is at the heart of everything we do.
The Innovation Project Managers, research team, and many other stakeholders at Borealis are working together to make those innovations a reality. We are now looking for you to join the team to lead various Innovation Projects in the Polyolefin, Hydrocarbons or Catalyst areas, as well as in the strategically important field of Circular Economy.
You will:
* Define the project scope and objectives together with the project owner and support to prepare a business case.
* Be responsible for delivering the project scope within time and budget.
* Plan and track the project within constraints such as time, cost and quality standards.
* Manage risks and actively follow-up in projects, including implementation of mitigation actions.
* Collaborate with various stakeholders within Borealis as well as external partners including facilitation of team and stakeholder meetings.
* Work directly with the team members, motivate them, give them feedback, direction, vision, and make sure that the project is staffed and skilled appropriately.
* Understand needs and types of agreements/contracts with external partners and setup and negotiate if needed.
About you
We are looking for a people-oriented individual with a technical background in a field related to Borealis' business, such as Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Polymer Science/Engineering or similar.
If you have prior experience as a project manager and already possess a PMI certification, it would be a bonus. However, as a commercial focus is crucial for this role, we are also eager to meet you if your professional experience stems from a commercial/customer-centric role in Sales, Marketing or Innovation Management. You should be interested in obtaining a PMI certification with our support.
Your success in this role will largely depend on your ability to handle a variety of topics and to guide and lead people towards a common goal. You are excellent in communication, presentations, have strong interpersonal skills to build relationships, and good facilitation and coaching skills. You will be working in an international and diverse team and environment where good teamwork and cooperation are key factors in your work.
