Senior Project Engineer | Pharmaceutical Manufacturing | Huddersfield

We’re supporting a well-established pharmaceutical manufacturing site with the appointment of a Senior Project Engineer to join their capital projects team.

This is a hands-on, delivery-focused role, offering full ownership of CAPEX projects from concept through to commissioning and handover.

The Role:

You’ll be responsible for managing a varied portfolio of projects, including:

• New equipment and manufacturing systems
• Packaging and production lines
• Site infrastructure and utilities (HVAC, water systems, boilers, facilities upgrades)

Projects range from £50K through to multi-million, giving a strong mix of pace and complexity.

What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out:

• End-to-end ownership of projects, not just coordination
• Variety across equipment, utilities, and infrastructure
• Strong cross-functional exposure across Production, Quality, Engineering
• A site that continues to invest in CAPEX and improvement projects

The Environment:

This is a live GMP manufacturing site, fast-paced and evolving. You’ll need to be comfortable managing multiple priorities, influencing stakeholders, and solving problems as they arise.

What We’re Looking For:

• Proven experience delivering CAPEX projects end to end
• Background in pharma or regulated manufacturing (GMP)
• Strong technical engineering foundation (mechanical, chemical, or electrical)
• Experience managing multiple projects and stakeholders

If you’re looking for a role with more ownership, visibility, and variety, this is a strong opportunity to step into.

Feel free to apply or message me directly for a confidential discussion.

If you want, I can also give you a slightly more aggressive version that creates more urgency and response rate.
