Join Ramboll Energy and help deliver sustainable engineering solutions

Are you an experienced engineering project manager who enjoys leading technical teams, building trusted client relationships, and delivering complex projects from planning through closeout? Do you bring the technical judgment, commercial awareness, and communication skills needed to align multi-discipline teams around scope, budget, schedule, quality, and client expectations?

If so, this could be the opportunity for you.

Ramboll Energy is seeking a Project Manager, Engineering, to help lead multi-discipline engineering projects that support our clients and contribute to a more sustainable future.

The current draft identifies this role as part of Ramboll’s Energy business and connects it to Ramboll’s broader sustainable change mission.

Your new role

As our new Engineering Project Manager, you will be responsible for leading engineering projects through the full project lifecycle — from development and planning through execution, delivery, and closeout. You will manage the technical, commercial, and relationship aspects of assigned projects while helping teams perform at their best.

This is a highly visible role for someone who can combine engineering knowledge, project management discipline, client-facing confidence, and project team leadership. You will help establish clear project expectations, coordinate multi-discipline work, manage risk, support financial performance, and maintain strong communication with clients and internal stakeholders.

Your key responsibilities will be:

• Lead multi-discipline engineering projects from planning through execution and closeout, with accountability for scope, schedule, budget, quality, and client satisfaction.


• Coordinate engineering disciplines, project controls, technical leads, and support functions to maintain alignment around project objectives and deliverables.


• Serve as a trusted client-facing project leader, building strong relationships through proactive communication, responsiveness, and sound technical judgment.


• Manage project financial performance, including budgets, forecasts, change management, invoicing support, cash flow awareness, and timely escalation of project risks.


• Apply Ramboll’s project delivery model, tools, and best practices to support consistent project execution and predictable outcomes.


• Identify, assess, and manage project risks, including technical, contractual, resource, and schedule-related risks.


• Lead project meetings, client communications, internal coordination sessions, and project status reporting.


• Support proposal development, project planning, scope definition, and smooth transition from pursuit to execution where needed.


• Foster a collaborative project environment where team members are engaged, informed, and empowered to deliver high-quality work.


• Resolve issues and conflicts constructively, negotiate practical solutions, and maintain team momentum through changing project conditions.


• Support client development through regular client engagement, awareness of client needs, and alignment with Ramboll’s Energy and Industry strategy.

You will be part of Ramboll’s Energy business, working with colleagues who plan, design, and implement energy solutions for clients across the value chain.

You will work with talented engineers, discipline leads, project managers, technical specialists, and client account teams who bring local experience and global knowledge to complex project challenges. This role is ideal for a project leader who is energized by technical complexity, client interaction, and the opportunity to help teams deliver meaningful work.
