The role will require collaboration across various technical and non-technical functions to ensure seamless execution of these projects.

Job Mission

The Senior Project Manager will be accountable for managing large, multi-disciplinary projects, ensuring that all phases— from planning through execution to closeout—are completed on time, within scope and budget, and to the highest quality standards. These projects will address critical infrastructure challenges, including cleanroom construction, utilities system upgrades, and site redevelopment. This role is pivotal in delivering large-scale, technically demanding projects that require a keen understanding of facilities systems, manufacturing environments, and engineering solutions.

• Lead complex, technically challenging projects including large capacity expansion, cleanroom upgrades (semiconductor or pharmaceutical), utilities system installations, and site development in space-constrained environments.
• Manage the construction and renovation of facilities systems critical to manufacturing operations, such as HVAC, electrical systems, cleanrooms, and central utilities buildings.
• Ensure seamless operation during construction by developing equipment transfer paths through active factory spaces with minimal disruption to ongoing production.
• Address civil and structural project needs, including large-scale site development tasks like rock removal and navigating space limitations to optimize site usage.
• Collaborate with cross-functional departments such as Business Partnership, Facilities & Maintenance, REDS, EHS, and Procurement to ensure alignment with business needs, project goals, and regulatory compliance.
• Support project execution in high-tech environments (semiconductor, pharmaceutical) with a strong focus on cleanroom construction and adherence to stringent industry standards.
• Ensure project compliance with safety and environmental standards, including EHS regulations, throughout the project lifecycle.
• Manage project financials, including budgeting, tracking, reporting, and forecasting, ensuring alignment with ASML's financial policies and objectives.

• Contribute to the continuous improvement of the BGP process, incorporating lessons learned to refine project execution strategies and processes.

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering, Technical Business Administration, Facilities Management, MEP Engineering, or related technical field.
• Project Management Professional (PMP) certification is preferred.
• Minimum of 8+ years of relevant experience, with a focus on managing large-scale construction, renovation, and technical infrastructure projects within high-tech manufacturing environments (preferably semiconductor or pharmaceutical).
• Proven experience in cleanroom construction, and handling complex infrastructure systems such as HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and utility systems for manufacturing sites.
• Strong understanding of civil, structural, and site development, including site planning, rock removal, and maximizing limited space.
• Technical knowledge of facilities systems and services, including utilities management, and integration with manufacturing processes.
• Experience managing multidisciplinary teams and external contractors to execute complex projects on tight schedules and budgets.
• Familiarity with project management tools such as MS Project and PMIS for tracking and reporting progress.
• Knowledge of LEAN methodologies, PMBoK, and Prince2 is advantageous.

• Strong technical acumen with the ability to make informed decisions in cleanroom construction, facilities systems, civil/structural work, and complex site development.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills to manage relationships with internal stakeholders, contractors, and senior management.
• Proven ability to balance multiple high-priority projects simultaneously, ensuring on-time and on-budget delivery without compromising quality.
• Problem-solving skills with an analytical approach to identifying and addressing technical issues and project risks.
• Ability to lead and foster a collaborative, high-performing team that navigates complex challenges and delivers superior results.
• A strong commitment to safety, sustainability, and compliance with industry regulations throughout the project lifecycle.
