Today, Lonza is a global leader in life sciences operating across five continents. While we work in science, there's no magic formula to how we do it. Our greatest scientific solution is talented people working together, devising ideas that help businesses to help people. In exchange, we let our people own their careers. Their ideas, big and small, genuinely improve the world. And that's the kind of work we want to be part of.

In this role, you will bring together engineering, operations, design, and project management teams to build and maintain fully integrated project plans for large-scale life-science initiatives. Your work will enhance coordination, improve reporting clarity, and support continuous improvement across the full project lifecycle.

What you will get:

• An agile career and dynamic working culture.
• An inclusive and ethical workplace.
• Compensation programs that recognize high performance.
• Medical, dental and vision insurance.
• The full list of our global benefits can also be found at www.lonza.com/careers/benefits.

What you will do:

• Establish and maintain the Integrated Readiness Plan (IRP) for all E2E project phases, ensuring full integration across workstreams.
• Lead development and proactive management of the Integrated Schedule (IS) by collaborating with workstream leads across engineering, operations, design, delivery, and tech transfer.
• Validate timelines, challenge assumptions, and identify optimized approaches that improve speed and quality of delivery.
• Facilitate workshops and planning sessions to align workstreams, define key milestones, and assess scheduling risks.
• Monitor schedule deviations, perform root-cause analysis, and recommend corrective actions to keep delivery on track.
• Develop and maintain progress KPIs and reporting systems to track performance and ensure transparency across teams.
• Engage daily with stakeholders across all disciplines to drive coordinated project execution and maintain a consistent delivery "heartbeat."

What we are looking for:

• Strong experience in leading planning for large-scale life-science Capex projects, from concept through to manufacturing.
• Proven leadership skills with the ability to influence and collaborate across multidisciplinary project teams.
• Advanced analytical abilities with experience in managing complex datasets and producing clear, insightful reporting.
• Ability to work independently while actively contributing to a collaborative, team‑focused environment.
• Strong communication and presentation capabilities, with the ability to simplify complex data for stakeholders.
• Ability to navigate ambiguity, prioritize effectively, and adapt to evolving project demands.
• Engineering background with PMO experience and the capability to critically evaluate engineering and operational inputs.

Every day, Lonza's products and services have a positive impact on millions of people. For us, this is not only a great privilege, but also a great responsibility. How we achieve our business results is just as important as the achievements themselves. At Lonza, we respect and protect our people and our environment.
