Västerås, Västmanland, Sweden Sway Sourcing Full time 80,000 - 120,000 per year

We're seeking an experienced Senior Project Manager to lead large-scale manufacturing investment and industrialization projects for a global industrial company. This opportunity is intended for candidates who share a mutual ambition to transition into a permanent position after an initial contract period.

In this key position, you'll take end-to-end ownership — from feasibility and RFQ through procurement, FAT/SAT, process validation, and final handover to production.

The role demands strong leadership, structure, and the ability to deliver results through cross-functional collaboration.
You'll be joining at a pivotal stage to establish and launch a major investment project, ensuring alignment between technical, commercial, and operational teams.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead manufacturing and industrialization projects through all execution phases
  • Oversee project planning, budgeting, risk management, and resource allocation
  • Collaborate with engineering, production, procurement, and quality departments
  • Manage supplier selection, contract setup, and commercial negotiations
  • Supervise FAT (Factory Acceptance Test), SAT (Site Acceptance Test), and validation activities
  • Ensure a seamless handover to the production organization

Qualifications and Experience

  • Proven background managing manufacturing or industrialization projects, ideally involving CNC machinery, milling, turning, or drilling
  • Excellent organizational, planning, and communication skills
  • Strong grasp of commercial project management, including supplier management, contract setup and negotiations
  • Experience with SAP or similar ERP systems is an advantage
  • Demonstrated ability to lead teams and deliver complex projects on time and within budget

Your Profile

  • A results-oriented, structured leader with strong analytical skills
  • Clear communicator with excellent stakeholder management abilities
  • Pragmatic, proactive, and effective in complex technical and organizational settings
  • Collaborative mindset with the ability to build trust and drive cross-functional alignment
