Aufgabenstellung
The customer is an engineering company, that is planning engineering and constructing ammunition deconstruction plants (chemical and conventional). Typically, 1-2 plants are completed across the globe per year. In addition, the company designs and constructs contamination chambers for explosives and ammunition.
The business unit is currently being reorganised. Two previously independent business units will be merged (they already share the same building/ infrastructure). Internal departments will be reorganised. The reorganisation will include the creation of a BU corporate centre which will include most central/ overhead activities (sales engineering, aftersales, finance & admin, R&D). Business development and most key sales activities will be managed on Group level and not within the business unit. Additionally the implementation of a new ERP-system is required.
