The role

What you'll do

As a foreman, you are responsible for the daily management and execution of Carpentry for complex new construction, renovation, and transformation projects for residential and utility construction in Central Netherlands. You monitor processes and maintain contacts with subcontractors and suppliers. You act as a crew leader and are the right hand of the site manager.

Early in the morning, you kick things off at 7 AM with a kick-off meeting in the site office. In collaboration with the site manager, you consult about required equipment and materials and discuss the progress of the residential or utility construction project. You instruct and guide the carpenters. Who is working on what, and is everyone adhering to the set quality requirements and safety regulations? Just some of the matters for which you are the first point of contact.

You will therefore manage a team of several employees, but you will also work on the various projects yourself. Together with the team, you ensure that our maintenance, renovation, and transformation projects are successfully completed within the set requirements and deadlines.

Requirements

Dura Vermeer is an independent family business. And you can feel it. 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 belong to the top of the Dutch construction sector. But ultimately, for us, it is not about those figures. It is about people. About colleagues who work together on projects you can be proud of – iconic and close to home – and contribute to solutions for societal issues.

Our ambitions are great. And we only achieve them with committed people. That is why we invest in good employerhood and a working environment in which you feel at home. Where you can be yourself, feel safe, and speak up. So that you get the best out of yourself and make more together with us.

This is where you belong

At Dura Vermeer Bouw en Vastgoed Utrecht we work with about 100 colleagues on projects in Central Netherlands. From our office in Utrecht Leidsche Rijn and from the construction sites, we realize area and real estate development, residential construction, commercial construction, renovation, and transformation — from new construction to improving and renewing existing real estate. We love to get stuck in: development, preparation, and execution work closely together, with short lines of communication and a practical approach. No complicated fuss, but making plans and actually delivering them, with an eye for quality, sustainability, and projects we can be proud of.

This is what you bring

You are the modern foreman focused on working in a digital environment, new developments and techniques, and coaching-based leadership. With your enthusiastic attitude, you know how to motivate your colleagues and bring out the best in them.

  • At least MBO level of work and thinking, supplemented by a completed technical education.

  • You are someone who remains calm within a hectic environment and holds safety in high regard.

  • You have a demonstrable passion for the carpentry field.

  • Proficiency in the Dutch language.

  • In accordance with the CAO Bouw & Infra, a medical examination may be part of the application procedure. For this position, the examination is mandatory if you are starting work in construction and infra for the first time, or if you have not worked as an employee in construction and infra in the past 3 years AND an entry examination has not previously taken place for the same or a similar position for which you are applying.

These requirements show the direction of the profile we are looking for in this position. Even if you do not recognize yourself in all the requirements, but you do think this is the position for you? Then we would love to have a conversation with you.

Do you also want to get more out of your work?
