In the role of Project Leader, space for personal challenge and development is enormously important. You develop yourself not only through courses and training, but especially through collaborating with other project leaders and 'doing' projects. A few examples of your role and responsibilities.

• Ultimately responsible for realizing sustainable and future-oriented designs and land-use plans in rural areas.
• Leading, motivating, and coaching multidisciplinary project teams.
• Coordinating progress with clients and other stakeholders.
• Ensuring the correct financial and procedural completion of projects.
• Identifying and utilizing opportunities for further development, for example in the field of tender management or market approach.

As a Project Leader, working from the Land Use Advisory Group, you will collaborate with colleagues on impactful integrated projects for the climate-resilient design of rural areas, the construction of robust stream valleys, the deployment of 'nature-based' solutions, and the restoration and expansion of peatlands. Examples of these projects include De Leenheerenpolder, De Baakse Beek, Binnenduinrand Goeree, and Bargerveen. You will also help realize civil engineering projects, such as the reinforcement of quays and dikes in, for example, Gelderland, or the replacement of hydraulic engineering works, such as a weir or pumping station in Utrecht. Beautiful projects that make the Netherlands a little more beautiful, livable, and healthy.

In addition to your role as a project leader, Arcadis offers you the space to develop more broadly, for example within tender management or market approach. Depending on your experience and ambitions, you will contribute to a wide range of activities. Will you join us?
