Junior MES Consultant:
Do you want to help leading life sciences companies accelerate digital manufacturing and drive operational excellence through MES solutions?
To strengthen our Smart Manufacturing team in Europe, we are looking for a German-speaking Junior MES Consultant with a pharmaceutical/life sciences background and a strong interest in IT/technology, including MES, manufacturing systems, and integrations. You do not need extensive MES platform experience to apply.
At NNIT, we help customers improve manufacturing processes through digitalization, standardization, and modern technologies. Our Smart Manufacturing team works closely with global pharmaceutical companies on both local and international MES programs—supporting everything from strategy and design to implementation and optimization.
You will join an international team of experienced consultants who combine deep industry insight with strong technical expertise to deliver solutions in complex, regulated production environments.
Your responsibilities:
As a Junior MES Consultant, you will support MES deliveries and contribute to our customers’ digital manufacturing journey. Depending on your interest and development plan, your tasks may include:
Supporting customer workshops and discussions related to MES use cases, goals, and requirements
Participating in analysis of manufacturing and production processes within life sciences
Supporting MES implementation work under guidance from senior consultants
Collecting, structuring, and documenting business requirements and translating them into clear functional descriptions
Supporting activities related to solution/vendor assessments (e.g., preparing materials, documenting findings)
Assisting with interfaces and integration topics between MES, ERP (e.g., SAP), and automation systems
Collaborating with stakeholders across production, quality, engineering/automation, and IT
Contributing to project documentation and ensuring alignment with customer and regulatory expectations
Taking part in knowledge sharing and learning activities within the Smart Manufacturing team
Your qualifications and experience:
We are looking for a junior profile with a life sciences mindset, strong curiosity for technology, and the ability to learn quickly in structured project environments.
Degree in IT, Engineering, Science, Pharmacy, Biotechnology, or a related field (or equivalent relevant education)
Background from the pharmaceutical/life sciences domain (e.g., studies, work experience, internships, or projects)
Basic understanding of manufacturing concepts in regulated environments (GxP awareness is a plus)
Interest in (and willingness to learn about) MES, IT/OT concepts, and data/integration topics
Basic understanding of IT systems and integrations
Strong communication and stakeholder skills
Structured and well-organized approach to work
Ability to work both independently and in international teams
Strong documentation habits and a constructive problem-solving mindset
Fluent communication skills in German and English — only candidates with business fluency in German can be considered, so please apply only if you meet this requirement
What we offer:
At NNIT, you will become part of a professional and collaborative environment where knowledge sharing, trust, and development are highly valued.
Opportunity to work with leading life sciences companies across Europe
Challenging and meaningful projects within digital manufacturing and smart production
International and highly skilled colleagues with strong industry expertise
Flexible working conditions with focus on work life balance
Competitive salary and benefits package
Access to professional training and certification opportunities
Clear framework for career and personal development
Informal and collaborative company culture with strong team spirit
Location and travel:
We are hiring into our European team in the UK or any EU country in which NNIT has a business entity - Germany, Denmark, Czechia, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Spain or Switzerland
Travel should be expected but will typically remain below 20 percent and limited to necessary business trips
- Fluency in oral and written English and German are both essential to be considered for this role
- Additional language skills are advantageous but not essential
What’s next?
