Senior Project Manager: Manufacturing Transformation
Regulated Manufacturing / Technology Transfer / CMO and CDMO Transition
Location: London (four to five days on site while the programme is established)
Salary: £80,000 to £90,000, plus bonus
Contract: Permanent
About the role
Our client, an established and well regarded name in consumer health products manufacturing, is entering a significant period of operational transformation its manufacturing activity (internal production to external manufacturing partners) needs to be analysed and rationalised and the Project Manager will be central to making that happen.
This is not a project coordination or PMO role. The strategy is still developing, and the person appointed will help shape it into a practical, deliverable programme, then personally drive that programme through partner selection, technology transfer, validation, go live and stabilisation.
What you will own
What we need from you
Relevant sectors include pharmaceuticals, consumer health, medical devices and MedTech, healthcare products, FMCG, and food, supplements or nutraceuticals. What matters most is the complexity and regulatory demands of the environment you have worked in, rather than an exact sector match.
This role will not suit
A background in general programme or project management, for example in IT, financial services, construction or infrastructure, is not a fit here, however strong the delivery track record, unless it also includes hands-on ownership of a manufacturing, site transfer or technology transfer programme in a regulated environment. Familiarity with project management software or governance frameworks on their own is not what this role is looking for.
