  • Coordinate engineering disciplines, project controls, technical leads, and support functions to maintain alignment around project objectives and deliverables.
  • Serve as a trusted client-facing project leader, building strong relationships through proactive communication, responsiveness, and sound technical judgment.
  • Manage project financial performance, including budgets, forecasts, change management, invoicing support, cash flow awareness, and timely escalation of project risks.
  • Apply Ramboll’s project delivery model, tools, and best practices to support consistent project execution and predictable outcomes.
  • Identify, assess, and manage project risks, including technical, contractual, resource, and schedule-related risks.
  • Lead project meetings, client communications, internal coordination sessions, and project status reporting.
  • Support proposal development, project planning, scope definition, and smooth transition from pursuit to execution where needed.
  • Foster a collaborative project environment where team members are engaged, informed, and empowered to deliver high-quality work.
  • Resolve issues and conflicts constructively, negotiate practical solutions, and maintain team momentum through changing project conditions.
  • Support client development through regular client engagement, awareness of client needs, and alignment with Ramboll’s Energy and Industry strategy.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in engineering, science, or a related technical field.
  • 8+ years of relevant experience managing engineering, industrial, energy, manufacturing, infrastructure, or similarly complex technical projects.
  • Strong understanding of project scope, budget, schedule, risk, change management, quality, and client communication.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead multi-discipline engineering teams and coordinate technical work across engineering functions.
  • Strong leadership and interpersonal skills, including influencing, coaching, mentoring, conflict resolution, negotiation, and team motivation.
  • Project Management Professional Certification preferred.

You will be part of Ramboll’s Energy business, working with colleagues who plan, design, and implement energy solutions for clients across the value chain. You will collaborate with talented engineers, discipline leads, project managers, technical specialists, and client account teams who bring local experience and global knowledge to complex project challenges. This role is ideal for a project leader energized by technical complexity, client interaction, and the opportunity to help teams deliver meaningful work.

Benefits

  • A collaborative culture where technical expertise, curiosity, and diverse perspectives are valued.
  • Opportunities to lead complex projects and grow as a project management and business leader.
  • Access to experienced colleagues, technical specialists, clients, and projects that provide continuous learning.
  • Long-term thinking and stability as part of a foundation-owned company.
