The posting

Position Summary

Lead the project execution governance system across the Clarios Customer & Technology organization, covering CTO, Core Business and Energy Systems. Provide leadership with a reliable, evidence-based view of project health, risk and recovery; establish consistent standards; verify execution information; identify cross-project constraints; and drive timely escalation and management action. The role does not own day-to-day project execution, technical decisions or project-management tool support.

Key Responsibilities

· Own and continuously improve the Customer & Technology project execution governance framework, including lifecycle, roles, decision rights, review cadence, minimum artifacts and objective Green / Yellow / Red criteria.

· Define the execution information, update frequency, evidence and authorized sources required from Project Managers across CTO, Core Business and Energy Systems.

· Verify the timeliness, completeness, consistency and traceability of plans, milestones, risks, issues, forecasts, recovery actions and engineering hours.

· Provide an independent assessment of project health across schedule, cost/hours, resources, technical maturity, validation, quality, customer commitments and risk exposure.

· Lead the monthly Customer & Technology project execution review and weekly exception reporting for critical projects, clearly identifying exposure, changes, recovery confidence and decisions required.

· Establish escalation thresholds and ensure critical risks, overdue decisions, resource conflicts, and customer or launch exposure reach the appropriate leadership forum.

· Require and challenge recovery plans for Yellow/Red projects; facilitate health checks, deep dives and gate-readiness reviews for high-exposure projects.

· Identify systemic risks and shared constraints across the three organizations, including scarce competencies, validation capacity, laboratory availability, supplier dependencies and architecture dependencies.

· Build Project Management excellence through practical standards, playbooks, templates, coaching, startup reviews and lessons learned.

· Align governance with applicable automotive and engineering practices, including APQP, IATF 16949, ASPICE, ISO 26262, ISO/SAE 21434 and customer-specific requirements.

Recurring Outputs

· Customer & Technology project execution dashboard and executive decision brief.

· Project information quality and update-compliance report.

· Top risks, issues, dependencies and shared-constraint view across CTO, Core Business and Energy Systems.

· Yellow/Red project and recovery-plan tracker.

· Engineering hours versus plan/forecast exception view.

· Executive action, decision and escalation log.

Authority and Accountability

· Set minimum project-governance, information, evidence and reporting standards across Customer & Technology.

· Request correction of incomplete, outdated or inconsistent information and additional supporting evidence.

· Convene project health checks, recovery reviews and deep dives.

· Issue an independent PMO assessment when evidence does not support the status reported by the Project Manager.

· Escalate critical exposure and overdue decisions according to agreed thresholds.

Accountability boundary: Project Managers remain accountable for planning and execution; functions own technical deliverables and resources; Customer & Technology leadership owns priorities, investments, trade-offs and interventions.

Candidate Profile

Experience and Education

· Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Business, Operations or a related discipline; master’s degree preferred.

· 10–15 years of experience in product development, engineering, program management or project management, including at least 5 years leading a PMO, complex programs or project controls.

· Demonstrated experience within an automotive supplier, vehicle manufacturer, or engineering organization involving hardware, software, systems and validation.

· Proven success establishing governance, executive reviews, risk controls, project recovery and execution metrics in a global, cross-functional organization.

Knowledge and Leadership Capabilities

· Strong command of integrated planning, critical path, risk management, resource/capacity management, forecasting, project controls and executive reporting.

· Working knowledge of APQP, IATF 16949 and automotive product development; knowledge of ASPICE, ISO 26262 and ISO/SAE 21434 strongly preferred.

· PMP, PgMP, PMI-RMP or equivalent certification preferred; demonstrated practical experience is more important than certification alone.

· Systems thinking, independent judgment, executive synthesis, constructive challenge and influence without direct authority.

· Evidence-based mindset, operational discipline, rigorous follow-through and strong coaching capability.

· Advanced professional English; Spanish is an advantage depending on location.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
