Your professional background and personality will provide inspiration, guidance and results-oriented leadership for a team of 11 experienced, motivated engineers and developers.

Referring to the Vice President of R&D and Engineering, the R&D Director plays a strategic role at VIKING. You will be responsible for the development and optimization of safety solutions. In addition to day-to-day management tasks, you will be responsible for setting the direction and goals for the department. You will propose development and innovation strategies for the future, and ensure that winning strategies are successfully adopted and implemented.

You have experience from an R&D function in an industrial and international organization, preferably related to the maritime sector.

Your R&D toolbox is highly developed and up to date, and you have significant experience in user-driven innovation. Knowledge of Financial Project Management in SAP is a plus, and a high level of English proficiency (speaking and writing) is required.

As a person you are business- and result-oriented, and as a leader you have a strong focus on performance, motivation and job satisfaction. You are highly analytical and have a high level of abstraction. You are decisive, naturally assertive and have a strong drive. You are focused and systematic, and you proactively follow up on all tasks.
