What if you decide how BAM Wonen takes the next step in industrialization, digitalization, and sustainable high-rise construction?

Within the Utilitarian Housing division of BAM Wonen, known internally as Urban Up, we realize the most complex and sustainable residential construction projects in the Netherlands. High-rise, mixed-use developments, inner-city challenges, and projects where affordability, sustainability, and manufacturability converge.

To realize our ambitions towards 2030, we are looking for a Manager of Plan Development, Innovation & Industrialization. An experienced architectural coach who not only provides direction to our projects in the preliminary phase, but also to the further transformation of Urban Up in the fields of industrialization, digitalization, and sustainability.

In this role, you are responsible for the entire plan development process of our projects and you play a key role in the further development of Urban Up.

You lead a multidisciplinary team and, together with them, translate complex client requirements into feasible, sustainable, and manufacturable plans. At the same time, you are the pioneer of the innovation and industrialization agenda and ensure that new developments actually become part of our projects and processes.

Your responsibilities

• You manage a team of approximately 10-15 professionals: project managers, technical project managers, cost experts, and organizational experts.
• You coach your teams so that they translate complex client requirements into feasible plans, finding the right balance between affordability, sustainability, quality, and phasing. You will also further professionalize the role of design leader.
• You ensure that industrialization, sustainability, and digitalization are optimally utilized to achieve the best solutions for complex projects.
• You develop your teams and act as the pioneer for further professionalization.
• You have a vision regarding the transformation that development and construction must undergo. Themes such as AI, timber construction in high-rise buildings, digitalization, and a growing portfolio are central to this.
• You oversee the whole picture and ensure that plans are feasible, manufacturable, and budget-driven.
• You structure the development process from various entry points and ensure a consistent line through to the realization agreement.

You are an experienced architectural coach with vision. Someone who understands what is needed to successfully develop complex projects and who gains energy from improving processes, teams, and working methods. You know how to bring people along in change, dare to provide direction, and have a clear view of the future of the construction sector.

• Experience in managing, coaching, and developing professionals.

At Urban Up, you get the chance to build the city of tomorrow and the way that city is built. You work on projects that matter, in an environment where innovation, collaboration, and craftsmanship are central.
