The role is particularly important during our transition to the new facility. You will coordinate and support the practical work required to establish the production environment, including installations, infrastructure, production areas, equipment and technical systems. If you enjoy solving practical problems, coordinating different people and suppliers, getting things done and building something from the ground up, we would like to hear from you.
