Build the landmarks of tomorrow. We're looking for a Project Execution Manager to lead our next masterpiece from blueprint to handover.

The role also provides leadership and coaching to developing PEMs, contributing to a high performing and collaborative project management community.

- Plan, prioritize, and schedule tasks for the project team aligned with on time project execution. Drive regular internal project communication (e.g., weekly project calls) and actively engage and motivate the cross functional team to deliver on assigned responsibilities.
- Provide leadership and mentorship to PEM 1 roles across the Hilti group, contributing to capability building and performance excellence.
- Support the development of newer or less experienced Project Execution Managers by fostering a positive team culture, sharing expertise, and enabling learning through show & tell sessions.
- Act as a trusted sparring partner and coach to a broad network of regional and local Project Execution Managers, Construction Project Managers (CPMs), and Project Fulfillment Managers.
- Identify project risks together with the CPM, develop a comprehensive Risk Assessment Matrix, and define preventive and corrective actions to mitigate both internal and external risks.
