Business Developper & Construction Project Manager Industry

What's the role?

Belgium has established itself as a leading hub in Europe for pharmaceuticals, ranking among the top five in the region. Industry giants such as Pfizer, Takeda, GSK and Johnson & Johnson rely on Belgium for R&D and production.

In addition to pharmaceuticals, BeLux is experiencing a significant trend in data center construction. This ranges from hyperscale projects by companies like Google to smaller colocation data centers by organizations such as LCL, Mercury and KBC.

As a Business Developer and Construction Project Manager (BD/CPM), you will integrate strategic long-term business development with hands-on construction project management. This unique role focuses on increasing Hilti’s market share within the Pharma and Data Center industries, excluding hyperscale Google projects.

Business Developer:
- Develop strategic partnerships and project pipelines with Pharma and Data Center companies.
- Drive Hilti specifications, fostering positive sales growth at both account and project levels (MRO).
- Monitor and analyze economic and market trends to identify opportunities and adjust strategies accordingly.
- Build and nurture senior-level relationships within target customer organizations to implement account strategies proactively.

Construction Project Manager:
- Oversee the successful execution of specific construction projects sourced from the Business Developer’s pipeline.
- Maximize Hilti’s influence in projects by identifying critical opportunities, offering tailored solutions (e.g., BIM), and ensuring seamless execution.
- Build and manage project networks, including legal reviews, BIM coordination, logistic planning, pricing strategies, and soft specification creation.
- Lead daily sales steering activities through Project Account Managers, focusing on Pharma and Data Center projects (excluding hyperscale Google).
