The position

As the Managing Director of the NanoLabTUe you are responsible for the day-to-day business operations in and around the cleanroom laboratory. Within this shared facility setting, you supervise a group of 13 technicians that ensure our research facility and service level is in optimal condition, that the capabilities stay state-of-the-art and that users get trained on the equipment. Your primary role is to be proactive and supportive towards the researchers and your technical team. Excellent management skills and a good overview of the research fields involved - with a lifelong learning attitude - are key.

The Managing Director coordinates activities related to the acquisition, maintenance and exploitation of the equipment. Responsibilities include budget management in terms of controlling costs and generating internal and external revenue, safety management, and communication with the TU/e user groups and external parties. You will have a key role in the strategic investment plan by scouting new developments in nanofabrication and linking this to the needs of the user community. As such you are the project leader of the TU/e part of the QuantumDeltaNL/NanoLabNL investment program in cleanroom equipment. You will coordinate the internal investment teams that prepare public tenders and participates in the NanoLabNL steering group.

One of your major challenges in the coming years will be to manage the foreseen move of the NanoLabTUe to a new facility built by the TU/e and ASML at the TU/e campus. At first your role will be to coordinate an extensive range of TU/e requirements for the new cleanroom (e.g. Datatraffic, logistics, health & safety, cleanroom design & installation) and to monitor all specifications during the construction phase of the cleanroom. Subsequently you will set up a project plan to prepare the move of the equipment and you will manage its actual transfer to the new building in 2027 guaranteeing all requirements and providing maximum possible availability of equipment to users. This move and the further collaboration with ASML involves establishing effective communication and a good working relation with ASML.
