Job description

Position Overview :
 

In the production departments of our client in Puurs, raw materials are transformed into finished sterile medicines. The product goes through several, often automated, production steps. At every stage, we strive for the highest level of operational excellence.

The project, as Project Engineer Serialization/End-of-Line, is situated within the Engineering Department of the Center for Secondary Packaging (CSP). At this dedicated location, sterile medicines are further processed after filling and inspection. Depending on the product presentation, it is further assembled and labeled, and, with the necessary patient and user information, packed into cartons. To prevent counterfeiting, a unique number embedded in a data matrix is applied. After automatic palletization and temporary storage, the goods are shipped to our distribution centers.

Role Responsibilities:
 

As a Project Engineer, you are responsible for the purchase, installation, and commissioning of pharmaceutical packaging machines to support our continued growth.
We strongly believe in teamwork! Therefore, the tasks below are typical for the Project Engineer Serialization/End-of-Line, but the final result of the team is what matters most.
Executing packaging projects with a focus on the processes from the printing of the carton to automatic palletization, including automation and integration with higher-level systems — from project initiation to handover to production. This includes, among other things: writing specifications, evaluating supplier proposals, following up with suppliers after ordering, testing machines according to predefined protocols, ensuring a successful start-up, supporting production during the first months, and performing a documented handover to production and maintenance.
Reporting to the Lead Engineer Serialization/End-of-Line. For larger projects, you work in a matrix structure under the direction of a Project Lead. For smaller projects, you act as the project leader yourself. Close collaboration with other departments of CSP, notably Production, Packaging Design, and Maintenance, as well as the Components Group and the Quality Department.
