Project Manager

We are VAKE, building a wellness region together with residents. We are seeking an experienced project manager for a two-year program to integrate support services (catering, cleaning, laundry) into our service delivery. The project comprises planning, definition and implementation phases: in planning, we form project and investment plans for cold meal services; in definition, you will work with our service production and procurement to prepare new support service tenders, aiming for cost-effective management and synergies. In implementation, you ensure the ramp-up of the meal service agreement and rollout of the defined division of work to units. You describe processes and operating guidelines and train unit supervisors to follow the instructions. The work is hybrid; site visits and some live coordination meetings are required weekly. The role requires strong experience in project management, change management, and drafting written processes and guidelines. Experience in managing support services development and procurement is an advantage. You will need good time management and prioritisation skills. Interviews will be arranged on 16–17 Sep. The recruitment process includes a pre-task presented in the interview. The job sits in the Organising Support function, within a small team, with close collaboration with procurement. Our team is solution-oriented and helps each other. We offer a clear view of your role and opportunities to develop new ways of working, plus chances to grow your skills and career.
