We believe that diversity adds value to our business, our teams, and our culture. We are committed to equal employment opportunity fostering an inclusive environment where diversity makes us be outstanding.

Help us lead one of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies. We are a world leader in plasma-derived medicines with a presence in more than 100 countries, and a growing global team of over 20.000 people. That’s why we need a CAPEX & INVESTMENT TECHNICAL OF MANAGER like you.

Responsible for establishing, governing, and executing the corporate Capital Expenditure framework across all global operations. This role oversees the entire investment lifecycle—from 5-year Long-Range Planning (LRP) and annual budgeting to monthly execution monitoring, post-investment benefit reviews, and asset capitalization. Acting as a strategic bridge between Executive Management, Corporate Finance, Engineering (GE), and Local Manufacturing Plants, this position ensures optimal capital allocation, strict financial control, and process excellence across all capital investment categories.

What are your responsibilities:

Corporate Governance & Procedure Implementation

1. Corporate Procedure Definition & Rollout: Design, update, and enforce the corporate procedure for monitoring major capital investments across all business units.

2. Stage-Gate Governance: Enforce mandatory Stage-Gate reviews (Gates 1 to 4) for major projects, ensuring technical and financial maturity before approving budget releases or Phase transitions.

3. Delegation of Authority (DOA) Enforcement: Administer the corporate approval matrix for investment authorization, supplements (AFE Overrun Requests), and contingency releases.

Long-Range Planning (LRP) & Annual Budget Preparation

1. Corporate 5-Year LRP Preparation: Lead the annual multi-year investment planning process (LRP), prioritizing candidate projects aligned with corporate strategic objectives and cash flow capabilities

2. Annual CAPEX Budgeting: Consolidate and build the annual global CAPEX budget, integrating inputs from Global Engineering, site-level operational teams, and executive stakeholders.

3. Capital Allocation & Cash Flow Alignment: Coordinate with Treasury and Corporate FP&A to align monthly cash-out trajectories with corporate liquidity limits.

Monthly CAPEX Monitoring & Comprehensive Reporting as a complement of the financial report

1. Global CAPEX Tracking from technical approach: Execute detailed monthly monitoring across all investment streams (Grifols Engineering, Local CAPEX, Master Projects)

2. Estimate at Completion (EAC) variances and track technical progress, identifying critical path delays or cost overruns.

3. Executive technical Dashboards & Reporting: Prepare monthly reporting packages and executive dashboards for the Investment Committee and Board of Directors.

Global CAPEX Taxonomy & Strategic Categorization

1. Capital Classification & Reclassification: Review, audit, and reclassify (if necessary) all global investment proposals into strategic buckets:

o Growth / Expansion: Revenue-generating or capacity expansion projects.

o Sustaining / Maintenance: Asset replacement, operational continuity, and

reliability.

o Compliance & Regulatory: EHS, quality, and regulatory mandatory standards. o Efficiency & Productivity: Cost reduction, automation, and operational improvement projects.

Post-Investment Analysis & Asset Capitalization

1. Post-Implementation Reviews (PIR): Conduct formal post-investment audits 12 to 24 months after commissioning to verify the delivery of Business Case promises (ROI, ramp-up speed, capacity, and OPEX savings).

2. Asset Capitalization Coordination: Partner with Corporate Accounting to ensure timely project closure and accurate asset capitalization (transfer from Construction in Progress - CIP to Fixed Assets), preventing delays in depreciation schedules.

3. CAPEX vs. OPEX Boundary Compliance: Enforce strict accounting rules on plant direct purchases to prevent misclassification of operational expenses as capital investments.

Performance Metrics (KPIs) & Process Excellence

1. KPI Framework Development & Execution: Establish, track, and report critical Key Performance Indicators for the CAPEX Office: o Capital Deployment Cycle Time (Approval to PO placement). o Budget Accuracy Ratio by Site/Division. o Project Overrun & Supplement Rate (%). o Post-Investment Benefits Realization Index

2. Continuous Improvement & Training: Train Plant Directors, Controllers, and Project Leaders on corporate CAPEX procedures, financial models, and business case justification.
