MANUFACTURING PROJECT MANAGEMENT LEADER

The main missions of the Manufacturing Project Management Leader are  

• Manages the manufacturing engineering scope in a project 
• Provides smart, simples, creative and robust solutions in order to make the project profitable 
• Ensures cross functional management of the extended team 
• Ensures lessons learned. 

ACTIVITIES

Project Management:  

• Defines initial Statement of Work of manufacturing perimeter including extended team, regarding project perimeter, development budget (hours, hourly rate, travel cost) and Optimap Work Packages, 
• Defines and sets up the project planning, 
• Manages the manufacturing project reviews, consolidates actions and provides reporting and action plans,  
• Participates to design reviews and QUAD reviews. 
• Assures that the Launch Readiness (led by the Launch Manager) are well organized 

Manufacturing:  

• Works regarding to HSE requirements 
• Can be involved in upstream phases of the project (expertise phase, acquisition phase), 
• Depending on project size, will either take in account activities of the extended team, 
• According to the project deliverable steps, defines global industrial scenario. This takes in account production process (paint, assembly) and supply chain (packaging, physical & information flows), 
• Is accountable for the use of OPmobility Manufacturing standards in a lean manufacturing way,  
• Gives design for manufacturing requirements to product design and ensures the integration, 
• Makes sure with the plant that its capacity is in line with project volumes,  
• Is responsible for industrialization phase in production plant and SILs. For that purpose he/she takes the lead on the different manufacturing means after the transfer in plant done by the different metier technicians (PPx), 
• Manages project Manufacturing economical perimeter (cycle time, number of operators, investments, and supply chain costs (transport, SILS)…). Tracks perimeter changes due to customer and reports to the PM, 
• Makes sure the ind. Perf. are the best in class (non added value activities are eliminated). 
•  

Budget management:  

• Determines the project provisional budget (hours and cost) 
• Allocates the budget to his extended team & guarantees resource availability with the manager 
• Determines internal and external perimeter regarding SOW, 
• Tracks perimeter changes due to customer or internal ones and reports to the PM. Proposes adjustments and modifications linked to perimeter evolution during project life time, 
• Insures the follow up of project budget and releases warnings to PM and métiers managers in case of gaps.  
• Contributes to investment optimization 

Continuous Improvements:  

• Participates to continuous improvements for job, organizations and methodology, 
• Participates to capitalization and to productivity actions, 
• Participates to definition and realization of progress plan, 
• At the end of the project, participates to the closure of project and gives feedback regarding best practices and difficulties, 
• Depending on the project size, he can also handle himself some activities of the extended team

 Competences requirements

• Bachelor’s with experience or Master’s degree in Engineering
• Prévious experience in manufacturing development and/or activities for automotive industry or as Senior assembly engineer or plant engineer. 
• Leadership, able to make clear synthesis, organized, rigorous, good communication, English, project management skills
