We're looking for a CAPEX & Engineering Lead to drive the execution of large-scale capital investment projects at our industrial fermentation facility in Aarberg. This role is central to scaling our biomanufacturing infrastructure and expanding mycoprotein and precision fermentation production.

You'll take ownership of end-to-end CAPEX projects, from early design (FEL phases) through engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning (EPCM). On time, on budget, at the right quality.

But this isn't a pure project management role. We need someone who understands fermentation from the inside out — the process, the equipment, the engineering decisions that make or break a plant.

What you'll do

• Lead CAPEX projects (multi-million €) from concept to commissioning, across Europe, Asia, and the Americas
• Own all project phases: FEL, engineering, procurement, construction, startup
• Manage external partners, EPCM contractors, and internal stakeholders
• Align closely with production, engineering, and operations teams
• Drive process optimization and plant expansion
• Keep tight control over budget, timelines, and risk
• Ensure compliance with safety, regulatory, and food-grade standards
• Act as a hands-on leader, bridging strategy and on-site execution
