About the organization & the role

Our client is an international, technology-driven industrial leader recognized for its pioneering work in advanced materials, circular solutions and high-end process innovation.

As Program Manager, you will take end-to-end ownership of a strategic portfolio of large-scale, externally co-funded innovation programs. This portfolio spans multiple interconnected, multi-year initiatives, ranging from materials engineering to industrial pilot-line scaling, conducted in close collaboration with major European institutional bodies and international consortia. Your mission is to secure program synergies, maintain governance, and translate complex technological milestones into timely, high-impact industrial realities.

Key Responsibilities

  • Program Governance & Roadmap Execution: Drive the strategic coherence, planning, and execution across an interrelated portfolio of advanced R&D and scale-up projects.
  • Consortium & Stakeholder Management: Act as the primary liaison between internal project leads, external industrial and academic partners, specialized grant management consultants, and institutional officers.
  • Budget, Scope & Resource Control: Oversee multi-million program budgets, allocate shared resources effectively, and enforce milestone-driven progress to ensure delivery within scope, timeline, and budget.
  • Compliance & Quality Assurance: Guarantee full alignment with formal grant agreements by systematically reviewing, approving, and submitting high-standard deliverables, milestone reviews, and periodic progress reports.
  • Internal Leadership & Alignment: Inspire and challenge cross-functional teams (R&D, engineering, intellectual property, operations) to foster technical excellence, cross-project synergy, and accountability.

Profile & Requirements

  • Location & Work Authorization:Currently residing in Belgium. In possession of a valid work permit to work in Belgium at the time of application.
  • Education:Master’s degree or PhD in Materials Science & Engineering, Physics, Chemical Engineering, or a closely related engineering discipline.
  • Experience:At least 3 to 5 years of demonstrated experience leading complex, multi-stakeholder technical projects or innovation programs in an industrial or advanced R&D environment. Direct experience with multi-partner, co-funded research frameworks is a distinct advantage.
  • Skills & Competencies:Proven acumen in budget tracking, milestone planning, contractual compliance, and risk mitigation. Exceptional interpersonal, diplomacy, and stakeholder-management skills, comfortable engaging with technical specialists, executive leadership, and institutional authorities alike. Structured, analytical, and outcome-oriented mindset.
  • Language Proficiency:Excellent professional command of English (written and verbal). Working knowledge of Dutch is a strong asset.

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.
