Project Planner for MAKEEN EnviroTech

Are you inspired by the thought of working with groundbreaking sustainable energy and waste conversion technologies? Then here’s an opportunity to join MAKEEN EnviroTech’s PMO organisation as Project Planner.

Right now, MAKEEN EnviroTech is strengthening the team with a strong focus on the pioneering Plastcon concept, where the first full-scale project is currently entering the commissioning phase.

The innovative Plastcon technology, through complex multi-technological processes, converts waste plastic into re-usable streams, primarily focused on oil-ingredients, that can be refined to various uses. Among these is the re-production of plastics, thus enabling a circular approach to manufacturing, usage, and re-usage of plastic products. Read more about the Plastcon process here.

Plastcon projects are truly major, both measured in physical size, technological complexity, engineering disciplines and economy. However, also the number of stakeholders are major thus demanding a strict collaboration and coordination. With ambitions to execute with excellence, project planning is an essential project support function.

The Project Planners primary responsibility is to build up and maintain the project schedule and to monitor progress throughout the project lifetime.
