Oceanbird is moving into the commersialisation phase of our wing sails, which will revolutionise the shipping industry. During the year to come, we have tested our first full-scale prototypes and are preparing for serial production. While optimising the current wing design, we are also looking into adapting the design for other segments and vessel sizes.

Would you like to contribute to this change, then join our fast-growing, highly competent and passionate team in Stockholm, Sweden?

We are looking for a dynamic and experienced individual to coordinate customer projects.

• Coordinate with teams to develop the project schedule and detailed work breakdown.
• Initiate and lead feasibility studies.
• Support in carrying out approval procedures.
• Plan, coordinate and supervise on-site installation and commissioning in Europe & Asia.
• Organize and manage activities related to service.

To succeed in this role, you should have:
⇒ Practical experience in large projects, commissioning, or service operations

⇒ A good understanding of product development processes
⇒ Strong communication, problem-solving and time management skills
⇒ A degree or demonstrated experience in mechanical engineering, naval architecture, electrical engineering, marine engineering or a maritime background
