Working at Zenitel

Are you our new project manager?

We are now looking for a committed and skilled project manager to our Project department in Horten. The Project Department delivers large and medium-sized communication- and information systems to customers all over the world. Our systems are used on ships and boats, wind power plants as well as oil and gas installations.

The project department is responsible for all planning, design and configuration, as well as test and handover to the customer.

After delivery, the project department often participates when commissioning on site and performs service by agreement. Our skilled engineers also work closely with the sales department to ensure high quality and optimal technical solutions already in the supply phase.

As a project manager in Zenitel, you will have an independent responsibility for system deliveries. Some projects you will be solely responsible for, other times in collaboration with colleagues in the department in Horten or other departments in Zenitel. As project manager, your primary task will be deliveries of larger, more technically complex systems, and a large part of the job will be the design and integration of the systems with drawing in AutoCAD.

Do you have experience and passion in designing, integrating and managing system deliveries? Then we'd love to hear from you! If you also have experience with system deliveries in telecommunications, it will count positively.

Your tasks will include:

• Design and engineering of your projects
• Project management of your projects
• Systems integration
• Drawing of the systems in AutoCAD (rack drawings and electrical diagrams)

There may be some travel activity, but mainly the work will be in the office in Horten

Desired qualifications:

• Minimum 3 years relevant education with technical understanding, preferably electronics engineer
• Interest, and preferably knowledge of telecom/communication systems
• AutoCAD (2D) Drawing
• Network knowledge is desirable, but not necessary. Training/courses will be provided.
• Be able to write and speak fluently in both Norwegian and English

We are looking for you who are engaged and eager to learn, and who like to handle complex tasks. You understand the customer's needs and find good solutions, are easy to collaborate with and have good communication skills.

The position will be adapted for professional and personal development with good training, structured courses, and competence enhancement.

We know how important a good work-life balance is and offer flexible working arrangements for our employees.

We offer a challenging and varied position, with competitive conditions in a technical environment within a skilled team. At Zenitel, you become part of a competent and committed technical team, in a working environment where professionalism, openness and passion for what we create bring the results. As Zenitel's project manager, you can influence and really make a difference. Join our team!

We conduct background checks of relevant candidates through Semac AS.
