At Dura Vermeer, we prefer to recruit and select our candidates without the well-intentioned help of 'subcontractors'. In the event of acquisition, we reserve the right to charge for additional work.
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.
You will strengthen the technical management of Dura Vermeer Infra National Projects within the Water value stream. You will do this together with driven colleagues from various disciplines. You will be assigned to one of our complex integral projects, such as large-scale dike reinforcement, WFD, or water treatment projects.
