Technical Equipment Projectingenieur (GMP)

Vivid Resourcing is looking for a Technical Equipment Projectingenieur (GMP) for a client, a manufacturing organisation in Limburg, Belgium. The role is designed for engineers or project managers with a background in equipment development who want to move to the other side of the table, acting as the buyer and implementor of equipment rather than the engineer building it.

Essential requirements: experience implementing equipment using the V-model; proven experience in requirements engineering; experience with a risk-based approach to equipment acquisition; experience with GMP or other regulated environments; fluent Dutch and English; medior or senior level experience.

Desirable: experience in equipment engineering; pharmaceutical background; experience in automation and understanding of software configurations.

The offer: contract engagement of 12 months with extension possible; start in October/November; on-site in Limburg 3-4 days per week, 40 hours per week; rate to be confirmed with candidates; full ownership of equipment projects; opportunity to move from equipment development into a buyer and implementor role; a 1-2 stage interview process.
