Project Manager Underground Infrastructure

Work on complex projects involving cables, pipelines, soil, and the energy transition. As a project manager, you bring clients and specialists together and ensure that plans are actually realized.

The energy transition, housing construction, and the redevelopment of the Netherlands are placing increasing demands on our underground. New cables and pipelines must be installed, and existing infrastructure is being adapted. In this process, themes such as soil, ecology, archaeology, explosive remnants of war, safety, and nitrogen play an important role. As a project manager, you ensure that all these disciplines come together. You are responsible for acquiring and managing multidisciplinary projects for, among others, cable and pipeline operators, contractors, developers, and land managers. From the first client request through to execution, you maintain an overview and provide direction to the project.

To do this, you do not need to be the specialist yourself. You work closely with our experts in the fields of soil, archaeology, ecology, nitrogen, safety, and explosive remnants of war. You bring the right people together, monitor progress, planning, and finances, and ensure that agreements are met. You also play an important role towards clients. You understand what is happening with clients, think ahead, and see where new opportunities arise. Together with specialists, you develop smart approaches for projects and tenders. In this way, you build not only successful projects but also sustainable client relationships and new assignments.
