Geohydrology Advisor in Zwolle

At Nepocon, we believe in the power of innovation, collaboration, and personal growth. As a Geohydrology Advisor in Zwolle, you will work as a specialist in the field of groundwater, drainage, monitoring, and water safety.

An excavation pit being drained, a nature reserve drying out, or a neighborhood where foundations are coming under pressure: groundwater plays a role in almost every spatial intervention. Nepocon is building a new water group in Zwolle and is looking for a geohydrologist who understands the subsurface and wants to help build geohydrology here.

You will work for water boards, provinces, municipalities, contractors, and project developers on groundwater issues at local and regional scales. You interpret data and groundwater levels, perform model calculations, and clearly visualize the effects of interventions.

For drainage projects, you map out the risks to the surrounding environment, and you advise on groundwater nuisance and scarcity, desiccation, and foundation damage. You work closely with the hydrologists and the urban water and water safety advisors in the team, for example, regarding seepage behind a dike or infiltration in a residential area. You speak with your clients yourself and think along about the groundwater challenges where Nepocon can make a difference.

Great freedom and responsibility come with appropriate conditions:

• A gross monthly salary between € 4,425.- and € 7,623.- commensurate with your knowledge and experience;

• A choice budget of 10.91% of your gross annual salary, including holiday allowance;

• 25 vacation days for full-time employment, with the possibility to take extra days from your individual choice budget (IKB);

• A laptop and phone;

• An unlimited training budget, for both your professional and your personal development;

• An organization where career growth is a matter of course and successes are celebrated together.

You have a HBO or WO degree in (geo)hydrology, land and water management, or a similar field, and several years of experience with drainage and geohydrological modeling, preferably in MicroFEM and/or MODFLOW. You can explain complex information clearly, even to those who are not geohydrologists, and you are ready for a role in which you also help build a new team.

Nepocon is part of Engius and combines the impact of a group of specialized engineering firms with short lines of communication and a personal atmosphere. In total, approximately 90 specialists work there, spread across multiple locations in the Netherlands. After building up our water group in Leiden, it is now Zwolle's turn, with a team focused on urban water and sewerage, water safety, hydrology, and geohydrology for the East and North of the Netherlands.

You will be given the space to establish your own specialty and to help decide who fits into your team. Which tasks we take on here and which expertise belongs with them, we determine not for the team, but with the team.

No fixed boxes or heavy hierarchy then, but clients you speak to yourself and the space to choose your own direction. Read the stories of your future colleagues here.
