Project Control Manager in the Netherlands

For our infrastructure projects in the Northern Netherlands, we are looking for a Project Controls Manager. From this region, you will ensure that projects are in control and, together with the Project Manager, you will safeguard the business contract with the client. Do you provide overview, up-to-date management information, and clear agreements within the project team?

As Project Control Manager, you are responsible for controlling the GROTIK aspects in the projects and are always focused on maximum value in terms of quality, budget, and planning. On the project, you provide daily leadership to a team of experts who fill the various fields of work. Naturally, you must possess more qualities for this than just analytical ability and result-orientation; we also count on your empathy, persuasiveness, and coaching ability.

For this position, we are looking for a senior colleague with extensive experience within the following fields of project control:

• monitoring the GROTIK aspects (Money, Risk, Time, Organization, Information, Quality) within the project; in this regard, you take action towards the Project Team and signal towards the Project Manager;

• providing up-to-date control information on the GROTIK aspects for the purpose of decision-making;

• identifying uncertainties within the project based on the GROTIK aspects and implementing control measures within the total (project) control process;

• safeguarding the scope, internal and external interfaces, and deviations;

• contributing to the integrated cooperation (internal and external) and satisfaction of the project team members;

• drafting the project management plan and ensuring that the processes described therein are meticulously followed throughout the duration of a project;

Part of your package of tasks also concerns coordinating contract management on our assignment with the client, the so-called business contract. Together with the Project Manager, you monitor the financial scope of our assignment and ensure that we know exactly where we stand financially on a daily basis. You are precisely aware of the budget, process more/less work, and ensure that the contracts with partners and suppliers are processed neatly. With your sharp eye, you see immediately when deviations occur. For example, regarding scope, planning, or finances.

Dura Vermeer is an independent family business. And you can notice that. In how we work together, look out for one another, and build with an eye for future generations. Since 1855, we have been building the Netherlands, in residential construction, utility construction, infrastructure, and technology. Our independence and long-term vision form the basis for this.

With a turnover of € 2.6 billion and over 3,700 colleagues, we are among the top of the Dutch construction sector. But ultimately, it is not about those figures for us. It is about people. About colleagues working together on projects you can be proud of—iconic and close to home—and contributing to solutions for societal issues.

Our ambitions are big. And we can only achieve them with committed people. That's why we invest in good employer practices and a working environment where you feel at home. Where you can be yourself, feel safe and speak your mind. So that you get the best out of yourself and, together with us, make more.

Working from Dura Vermeer Infra National Projects, you will work on infrastructure projects in the Northern Netherlands. You will work at project locations within the region. We will determine the precise work location in consultation, depending on the project and your place of residence.

As Project Controls Manager, you will join the Project Controls department. You will get the opportunity to work on large-scale, multidisciplinary projects exceeding 50 million euros. Take, for example, the construction of drinking water and wastewater treatment plants, the renewal of the Nieuwe Meer junction near Amsterdam, various dike reinforcement projects such as in Neder-Betuwe or Arcen, or the construction of railway stations.

As Project Control Manager, you know how to connect and motivate different types of people within a project or tender. You are decisive and strong in communication, both orally and in writing. You think in opportunities and solutions, are structured and result-oriented, and possess well-developed analytical thinking skills. And furthermore:

• The salary for this position is between €7,610 and €9,512 gross per month (based on 40 hours), excluding 8% holiday allowance. The exact salary depends on your knowledge, level, and work experience;

• On top of the salary comes a fixed amount for the Sustainable Employability Budget for things that contribute to staying healthy and motivated (2.3% according to CAO Bouw & Infra);

• 43 leave days according to the Cao Bouw & Infra. Of these days, 13 are paid out in your individual budget; you can choose to buy these days back;

• A laptop and a smartphone;

• Excellent secondary employment conditions such as standard insurance for all employee risks, pension schemes, an extra supplement in case of disability, and a contribution towards trade union membership;

• You have the choice between a mobility budget, NS Business Card, or an electric lease car;

• With a contract for an indefinite period, you can choose a brand-new (electric) bicycle thanks to our partnership with lease-a-bike;

• Much attention to your growth thanks to our own Dura Vermeer Academy with plenty of education and training opportunities within your field, but also, for example, in the area of vitality;

• Company fitness scheme with a choice from a sports offering of over 3,500 sports locations throughout the Netherlands;

• A good work-life balance thanks to a flexible working policy and smooth arrangements for working hours, working times, emergencies, caregiving, or sabbatical;

• For new fathers and partners: 100% continued payment of your salary during the 5 weeks of supplementary birth leave, instead of the standard 70%.

• Extra employment conditions such as gratification/bonus.
