The role

Are you helping to build concrete projects within the fences of Europe's largest industrial port?
As a civil works foreman at Dura Vermeer Haven & Industrie, you will lead the execution of leading civil projects within industrial environments. Whether it concerns formwork, reinforcement, or concrete pouring for tank terminals, substations, or logistics hubs - you ensure everything runs smoothly, from preparation to delivery.

What you'll do

This will be your job
From the very first preparations, you are closely involved in the project. You draw up realistic schedules, ensure a well-thought-out safety and health plan, and create clear work instructions that your team can get to work with. You manage colleagues on the construction site daily and ensure that subcontractors and suppliers know exactly what is expected. As soon as the realization phase starts, your craftsmanship fully comes into its own. You monitor progress, quality, planning, and costs, and know how to successfully bring the project to a good conclusion together with your team. In doing so, you have regular contact with the project manager and client, so that everything runs smoothly and no one is caught by surprises.

Safety is always your number one priority. You ensure that everyone on the project can work safely and goes home healthy at the end of the day. You do this not because you have to, but because you consider it a matter of course. As a foreman within Dura Vermeer, you are more than just an organizer - you are a connector, a pioneer, and a professional who is proud of the result.
