UTILITIES MANAGER

Johnson & Johnson is currently seeking a Utilities Manager to join our MAKE Asset Management Organization located in US Large Molecule Drug Substance Site located in Wilson, North Carolina.
This role will support a new site startup, as such it may require periods of heightened travel to support these activities.
This travel would be during the site ramp up period and dependent on functional needs and project timelines (in some cases frequent travel and or short terms stays with vendors, sister companies, partners).
While this role will ultimately support the site operations located in Wilson NC, this role will also be required to support the project phase across both design & construction.
For the project design phase, the role will require you to be present with our design teams in the Greater Philadelphia region.
Once the design phase is completed, this role will support the construction and operational start-up of the site.
For this, you will be required to be on site in Wilson, NC.
Based on your current location the hiring team will work with you to determine travel and relocation arrangements.
In steady state, we expect travel to be less than 25%.
