Billund Project House, Denmark

Advanced Development Programme Manager.

ENGINEERING
Job Description Help shape the future of play by turning the Advanced Technology roadmap into a connected programme of projects and technical workstreams. Bring people, plans and decisions together so engineers and partners can explore boldly, learn quickly and mature promising technologies. You do not need every technical answer: bring curiosity, good questions and enough structure to create clarity and momentum without crowding out discovery. What you will play a part in Connect hardware, software, systems, engineering, manufacturing and product development through 12 practical elements of programme management: Programme leadership: Unite projects and workstreams around shared capabilities, outcomes and strategic priorities. Integrated planning and roadmapping: Own the roadmap linking experiments, demonstrators, milestones, maturity, integration and decisions. Governance and decisions: Keep governance light, with clear ownership, decision rights, evidence and escalation routes. Dependencies and integration: Expose interfaces, resolve cross-project conflicts and coordinate shared integration activities. Investment and financial management: Make investment, forecasts, pressures and funding choices clear as evidence develops. Resources and capability: Align people, specialist skills and suppliers to priorities; flag gaps and competing demands. Risk and uncertainty: Manage delivery risks and turn unknowns into learning through research, prototypes and experiments. Technology maturation: Guide validation, scalability, reuse, manufacturability and transition into products or platforms. Stakeholders and partners: Align sponsors and teams with suppliers, technology partners, start-ups, universities and researchers. Benefits and outcomes: Track capabilities and future value, not just activity; make learning, progress and trade-offs visible. Change and strategic control: Test changes against outcomes, roadmap, resources and investment while leaving room to explore. Programme capability and improvement: Build practical ways of working, capture lessons and strengthen the programme-management community. How you will lead Be curious: Listen, explore and connect the dots; let evidence guide the next question. Be brave: Challenge assumptions, surface tough choices and turn unsuccessful experiments into learning. Be focused: Bring the right people together around important outcomes, with purposeful action rather than unnecessary process. What you will bring Strong programme or technical project-management experience in engineering, R&D, advanced or new-product development, connecting related workstreams through an integrated roadmap. Technical depth and curiosity to engage credibly with engineers and partners, using experiments and evidence to assess maturity, assumptions and investment choices. Practical command of planning, governance, dependencies, risk, change, resources and investment, with judgement about when structure helps and exploration needs space. Collaborative leadership across organisational boundaries without direct authority, and clear, engaging communication that makes complex technical work understandable.
