Work on systems that the Netherlands relies on. 

Imagine: you are leading projects at one of the most critical locations in the Netherlands. An environment where safety, continuity, and reliability are not ambitions — but absolute requirements.

Within the Business Line Airports at Bosch, you will work on integrated security systems that protect Schiphol day and night.

Think of:

• CCTV and video surveillance
• radar and perimeter detection
• access control and alarm systems
• control room solutions and integrations

At Schiphol, everything is live, everything is connected, and downtime is not an option. 

What you manage must function — always.

Why working at Bosch feels different

At Bosch, you work in an organization that is not driven by quarterly figures or shareholder pressure.

Bosch is a stable foundation with a focus on:

• the long term
• quality over haste
• sustainable relationships with employees

That is why we do not see a first-year contract as "temporary," but as a careful start to a collaboration that must be right — for both sides.

Here, you don't just build projects.

You build trust, craftsmanship, and a future.

Your role: bringing calm to an environment that never stops

As Project Leader Security Systems, you manage complex projects while Schiphol remains fully operational.

That means:

• working in a live environment
• communicating with many stakeholders
• planning without disrupting operations
• thinking ahead before risks arise

You are the one who maintains oversight when the pressure increases.

No standard project management. This is taking charge in an environment where errors are immediately visible.

From kick-off to go-live:

You ensure that complex trajectories remain manageable — without the airport coming to a standstill.

The environment: complex, visible, and critical

Working at Schiphol means:

This requires someone who remains calm, thinks ahead, and dares to take responsibility.

Must-haves

You do not lead standard projects.

You work on systems that:

What you do determines whether thousands of processes can continue to run safely.

Within this role, you will get the space to act.

But freedom here also means:

You receive trust — because people count on you.

Because you:

• want to work on technology that truly matters
• want to make an impact in an environment that never stands still
• get energy from responsibility and complexity
• want to grow within stable and professional projects
• want to make a visible difference in safety and continuity

This is not a role for people watching from the sidelines. This is a role for professionals who make the difference by delivering when it matters.
