Cost Expert

Deploying every euro as effectively as possible. As a cost expert, you are the right person for the job at Dura Vermeer Bouw en Vastgoed Den Bosch. For complex residential and non-residential construction projects, you determine the direct costs from a pricing perspective and, with your advice, steer our projects in the right direction. A challenge, because construction tasks are becoming increasingly complex. You are up for it with your analytical insights for the Noord-Brabant and Limburg regions.

As a cost expert at Dura Vermeer Bouw en Vastgoed Den Bosch, you will receive a lot of responsibility and freedom within the projects. This is because you are responsible for the direct costs of a number of projects, from the initiative phase to the contracting agreement.

You discuss these projects with your team. This can include, among others, the project manager, design leader, business office (for the ABKs), developer, and also the project leader. During the tender phases, you jointly draw up risk analyses, you create indicative budget estimates for real estate developments and final (tender) budgets, and you consider whether certain solutions could be smarter, better, and more efficient for the client.

Naturally, you examine whether what has been signed or conceived can actually be built. Which costs exactly come into play there? You can tell them everything about that. No matter how complex the residential or non-residential construction project is, you always see a challenge in it. You take responsibility for determining the construction budget in a timely manner.

You are regularly in the office with the client and you visit the construction site now and then. Together with your estimation team, you want to build more sustainably, digitally, and innovatively. In addition to the team in which you work on projects together, you are also part of the estimation department. This group consists of a close-knit team of men and women who work together on the development and improvement of the estimation department, but of course also on your personal development.
