What you will do 

• Develop and deliver the global roadmap for GLIMS transformation and continuous improvement. 

• Improve laboratory processes by identifying opportunities to simplify and standardize workflows. 

• Lead GLIMS implementation, configuration, and integration projects across global sites. 

• Partner with laboratory, operations, quality, and IT teams to achieve business goals. 

• Drive change management activities that support successful adoption of new processes and systems. 

• Build strong relationships with internal stakeholders and external partners. 

• Ensure solutions meet regulatory, compliance, and data integrity requirements. 

What we are looking for 

• Bachelor's degree in a relevant scientific, technical, or business discipline, or equivalent experience. 

• Experience leading business transformation, operational improvement, or technology initiatives. 

• Knowledge of LIMS platforms or similar enterprise systems within regulated environments. 

• Experience delivering complex projects and working across multiple functions. 

• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills. 

• Ability to influence, collaborate, and drive change across global teams.
