YOUR ROLE

The R&D Robotics PMO will play a pivotal role in the newly established R&D Robotics Department, focusing on the governance, strategic alignment, and operational excellence of robotic projects related to CEVA's warehouse, ground, air, and ocean activities. This role is responsible for ensuring seam-less project governance, budgetary control, and performance tracking, while acting as the operational inter-face between CEVA and the Group's R&D Robotics teams.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ?

1. Project Governance & Budgetary Control
  • Lead the preparation of governance Steering Committees (SteerCo): agenda, supporting documents, and decision-making summaries.
  • Monitor project timelines, budgets, and risks, ensuring alignment with strategic objectives.
  • Establish and chair regular project steering committees to track progress and address challenges.
  • Consolidate executive reporting for senior management, highlighting key performance indicators (KPIs), risks, and recommendations.
  • Track and analyze performance metrics for pilot projects, ensuring transparency and accountability.
2. Operational Interface Between CEVA and R&D Robotics
  • Structure and maintain the robotics project portfolio, aligning it with CEVA's operational needs and Group R&D priorities.
  • Consolidate and prioritize cross-functional use cases for robotic solutions across CEVA's activities (warehouse, ground, air, ocean).
  • Provide operational oversight for onsite pilots, ensuring smooth execution and adherence to timelines.
  • Facilitate the transition from Proof of Concept (PoC) to industrialization, working closely with technical and operational teams.
  • Gather and escalate field feedback to the Group R&D team, ensuring continuous improvement and alignment with business needs.
3. Strategic Contribution & Continuous Improvement
  • Contribute to the development of strategic roadmaps for the R&D Robotics department, ensuring alignment with CEVA's digital and operational transformation goals.
  • Identify pain points in project execution and propose actionable improvements.
  • Support ad hoc projects or studies related to emerging robotic technologies, market trends, or process optimization.
  • Maintain a technology watch on robotic innovations, assessing their potential impact on CEVA's operations.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR ?

  • Master's degree in Engineering, Robotics, Business Administration, or a related field.
  • Minimum 5 years of experience as a PMO in R&D, digital, or industrial projects, with a focus on robotics, automation, or logistics.
  • Proven track record in project governance, budget management, and cross-functional collaboration.
  • Strong analytical and synthesis skills, with the ability to translate complex technical challenges into clear action plans.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to engage with both technical teams and senior leadership.
  • Experience in structuring project portfolios, prioritizing initiatives, and driving operational excellence.
  • Ability to work in a multicultural, multi-project environment, balancing strategic vision with hands-on execution.
  • Fluency in English (written and spoken) is mandatory; additional languages are a plus.
  • Proactive and solution-oriented, with a focus on continuous improvement.
  • Collaborative and adaptable, able to thrive in a dynamic, innovative environment.
  • Passionate about robotics and digital transformation, with a keen interest in emerging technologies.
