Meet your future team:

You will join our Centre of Excellence for Shutters & DSP (Decoration & Sun Screening Products). The team is responsible for specifying, developing, and delivering production technologies to our global manufacturing network within this product area.

As Area Project Manager, you will work across several international factories (CZ, France, Denmark), driving development and implementation projects that ensure aligned, high‑quality, and scalable production setups. You will collaborate closely with colleagues in Purchasing, Quality, Logistics, Engineering, and Production. Your role is central to ensuring that our factories are ready to accommodate new product launches, product modifications, and continuous process improvements.

Together with your colleagues, you will help secure manufacturing excellence across sites, contributing to the consistency, stability, and future‑readiness of the VELUX supply chain.

Your future role:

In this role, you will manage a wide range of technical projects across the DSP area. You will transform new product concepts into mature production setups, implement technological upgrades, and help transfer and scale solutions across factories.

More specifically, your tasks will be to:

• Plan, facilitate, and coordinate project activities across Engineering, Production, Quality, Purchasing, and Logistics
• Drive development and implementation projects across both Danish and international factories

• Prepare budgets, resource requirements, investment analyses, business cases, and process setups
• Collaborate with product development to secure strong Design for Manufacturing principles.
• Support ramp‑up, maturation, and transfer of manufacturing setups to other production sites.

You will be based in Vyškov and you may expect international travel of approximately 10–20 days per year, primarily within Europe.

What you will bring:

You are a structured, proactive, and collaborative Project Manager who takes ownership and delivers with consistency. You thrive in a highly technical environment and enjoy working across factory sites, functions, and cultures. Your curious mindset and analytical approach enable you to challenge existing processes and contribute to continuous improvements, always with the goal of creating business value.

Through strong communication and stakeholder management skills, you build trust and ensure alignment across teams. When priorities shift, you remain adaptable, focused, and solution oriented.
