The role
As an Arcadian, you help deliver leading design, engineering, and advisory services. You are part of our global organization of 34,000 people in over 30 countries, dedicated to truly bringing our passion 'improving quality of life' to life. Everyone plays an important role. By combining the intellectual power of our people with technology, we work to solve the world's most complex challenges and make a difference together.
What you'll do
As a civil designer, you will work on diverse area development and infrastructure projects in built environments. You will tackle civil engineering challenges related to roads and infrastructure, public space, ground levels, water and sewerage, cables and pipelines, and making areas ready for construction and residential use.
You will collaborate with civil engineering designers and colleagues from fields such as mobility, urban design, sustainability, spatial planning, contract management, and project management. Various disciplines come together within a single integrated design. You will be involved in different project phases, from the initial sketches and design choices to the technical elaboration towards realization.
- You will work on civil engineering designs in both 2D and 3D for area development and infrastructure projects.
- You translate spatial plans and client requirements into technically feasible and executable solutions.
- You elaborate design variants and substantiate design choices.
Together with fellow designers, modelers, and specialists from other disciplines, you will work on a multidisciplinary design. You will prepare drawings, estimates, technical descriptions, and other project documents, and participate in project meetings and design discussions. You will also contribute to knowledge sharing and actively contribute ideas on themes such as sustainability, climate adaptation, and digitalization.
Qualifications & Experience
As a designer, you enjoy collaborating with different disciplines, have a proactive and solution-oriented attitude, and think along about themes such as sustainability, climate adaptation, and digitalization. The international character of Arcadis brings challenging opportunities, and you find it interesting and educational to regularly collaborate (digitally) with fellow Arcadians elsewhere in the world.
Urban Development Advisory Group
Within Urban Development, we work on projects that shape the Netherlands for future generations. With approximately 80 colleagues, we develop, among other things, sustainable residential areas, innovative campuses, energy infrastructure, and new economic clusters.
We help governments, developers, and private parties translate complex spatial ambitions into feasible, integrated, and future-proof solutions. In doing so, we connect strategic advice with design, engineering, and project management, and we guide projects from the initial vision through to realization.
Our team is characterized by ambition, entrepreneurship, and collaboration. You will work in multidisciplinary project teams alongside experts in the fields of mobility, sustainability, economics, spatial planning, area development, and civil engineering.
Within Urban Development, we combine the flexibility of hybrid working with the energy of collaborating in the office. We meet regularly at our office in 's-Hertogenbosch to develop ideas, share knowledge and experiences, and make room for informal contact and the Brabantse gezelligheid that characterizes our team. Furthermore, you work from home, and of course, you are always welcome at one of the other Arcadis offices in the Netherlands!
We actively invest in your professional development. Through mentoring, technical knowledge sessions, project reviews, and team days, we learn from each other and further develop our field. In this way, you work not only on the cities and regions of tomorrow but also on your own growth within Arcadis.
Projects
Projects within Urban Development vary from large-scale energy infrastructure and inner-city area development to campuses, residential areas, area access, and industry. Below you will find a number of concrete projects planned for 2027:
TenneT Land Stations
Within one of Europe's largest energy transition projects, we are working on the spatial integration, engineering, and realization of new land stations that connect offshore wind energy to the Dutch high-voltage grid. In doing so, we make an important contribution to the sustainability of the Dutch energy supply.
Kenniskwartier Tilburg
In Tilburg-West, we are contributing to the development of the Kenniskwartier, where approximately 7,500 homes are combined with education, space for work, greenery, and mobility facilities. Various spatial and technical challenges come together within this area development. A project in which you discover how civil engineering design contributes to the development of a new urban district.
Campus Development ASML
For ASML, we are working on the integrated development of the high-tech campus in the Brainport region. We connect mobility, infrastructure, and public space to enable further growth and good accessibility. Here you see how civil engineering design relates to the development of a campus.
Multimodal Node Eindhoven
Around the NS station Eindhoven Centraal, we are working on a future-proof public transport node with good connections for trains, buses, bicycles, pedestrians, and shared mobility. Within Urban Development, we contribute to the civil and traffic engineering design of the public space and infrastructure, in conjunction with other disciplines such as architecture, mobility, urban design, landscape, and water. In this way, you contribute to the accessibility and layout of an important node in the Brainport region.
Bravis Hospital Roosendaal
Around the new Bravis hospital in Roosendaal, we are working on the Westelijke Randweg and the associated infrastructure. In doing so, we combine the civil and traffic engineering design of roads, intersections, and connections with the integration of landscape and water.
