Your most important tasks and responsibilities will be:

• Contribute actively to Business Development and strategic initiatives, identifying opportunities and turning technical insight into commercial wins.

• Experience as Design Manager and/or Project Manager

To succeed in the position, it is important that you are a good communicator, and that you handle different stakeholders better than most. Moreover, it is paramount that you work independently, with enthusiasm and proactivity. It is expected that you will actively contribute to the further development of the department through guiding the less experienced colleagues as well as through actively seeking out new projects through dialogue with Clients and your network.
