Job description
Company Description

As a world market leader in crop protection, we help farmers to counter these threats and ensure enough safe, nutritious, affordable food for all - while minimizing the use of land and other agricultural inputs.

Syngenta Crop Protection keeps plants safe from planting to harvesting. From the moment a seed is planted through to harvest, crops need to be protected from weeds, insects and diseases as well as droughts and floods, heat and cold.

Syngenta Crop Protection is headquartered in Switzerland.

Job Description

At Syngenta, our goal is to build the most collaborative and trustworthy team in agriculture, providing top-quality seeds and innovative crop protection solutions that improve farmers' success.

We are currently looking for an Engineering Project Manager to oversee the management of capital projects in our Research & Development and Commercial locations within North America, guaranteeing the prompt implementation of new or enhanced assets that align with business needs and adhere to established cost and safety standards. This includes offering expert advice and guidance at crucial stages of the project process through the timely application of technical and project management expertise. By collaborating closely with T&E, PTE, principal engineers, R&D colleagues and other key stakeholders, the project manager ensures that capital projects employ suitable engineering solutions, comply with Syngenta's HSE requirements and meet the needs of the business and our customers. We have recently completed the first phase of a major campus redevelopment program for our Greensboro HQ and are in the early planning stages for Phase 2. The successful candidate will be leading this crucial project for the business.

  • Directly manage projects by agreeing on, setting, and achieving challenging success criteria
  • Develop and implement project execution strategies with a project team primarily consisting of third parties, including Syngenta staff, design and construction contractors, and equipment suppliers
  • Collaborate with project owners and stakeholders to define project scope, navigating ambiguity during early stages and progressively developing the Terms of Reference (ToR) through Initiate and Design phases
  • Develop and maintain integrated project schedules, baselining milestones at key stage gates and re-baselining when necessary with Steering Team oversight
  • Identify and manage cost risks, contingencies, and scope changes with transparency to the Steering Team
  • Evaluate alternatives to capital investment, including third-party sourcing and operational changes, prior to solution selection
  • Define, estimate, deliver, track, and report on the safety, costs, and physical progress of individual capital projects
  • Prepare timely and comprehensive applications for engineering capital approvals and project completion reports
  • Ensure complete integration of commissioning and startup activities with the design and construction phases of projects
  • Maintain clear and consistent communication with the Steering Team, project owners, and key stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle
Qualifications
  • Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering (chemical, mechanical, civil, construction, electrical or equivalent degree in project management)
  • Project Management Professional (PMP) certification is preferred but not required
  • 10+ years of project management experience working in the construction of R&D, and commercial assets
  • Medium to large, complex project experience with brown/greenfield desired
  • Familiar with capital stage gates project process
  • Demonstrated ability to manage third-party contractors and cross-functional project teams
  • Advanced knowledge with engineering/design, procurement and construction
  • Effective in communication and stakeholder management
  • Effective in risk management
  • Basic understanding of engineering economics and finance, such as NPV, IRR, and discounted cash flow (DCF) model
  • Proficient in SAP and Microsoft Office Software (Word, PowerPoint, Excel)
