Infrastructure Designer

At KWS, we are looking for a Civil Engineering Designer. Do you enjoy working together with a team of professionals and do you like to regularly visit projects to see how your design is being implemented? Then the role of Infrastructure/Civil Engineering Designer is a good fit for you!

Your job
As a designer, you actively contribute to unique projects ranging from small to large. Think of designing roads or roundabouts within a municipality, but also larger UAV-gc projects such as 3e Ontsluitingsweg Edam-Volendam or Construction Teams such as Westelijke Stadsboulevard Utrecht. You are part of the design department at the main office in the Amsterdam-Utrecht branch and work together with your colleagues in a young and enthusiastic team. Additionally, you play a major role in creating the tender design during the tender phase and in the subsequent design process after the work has been accepted.
Your duties:

• Collecting all necessary information to arrive at a supported design.

• Conducting consultations with both externals, such as the client, and internally with your design leader or project leader regarding making design choices.

• Developing the design in 2D and/or 3D.

• Drafting design notes and memos to substantiate your design.

• Contributing to the demonstrability and traceability of the set design requirements through systems engineering (verification and validation).

When you come to work at KWS, you step into an organization with a strong regional position and a down-to-earth, professional culture. You will get plenty of room to develop yourself and to take responsibility.

We offer, among other things:

• A hybrid position for 32 to 40 hours per week.

• A salary depending on your work experience, indication between €4000,- and €5500,- gross per 4 weeks, paid out in 13 periods.

• A modern workplace at our office in Diemen (working from home is negotiable).

• Good primary and secondary employment conditions according to CAO Bouw & Infra, including 40 days off in the case of full-time employment.

• Company laptop and phone.

• An electric lease car fitting our sustainable ambitions, with a charging pass for all of Europe.

• Ample development and career growth opportunities within KWS and VolkerWessels.

You enjoy working in our own design department where we also collaborate extensively with our sister companies. You like to spar with the design leader or the project leader to arrive at an optimal execution design. Through collaboration with your colleagues in execution, you want to gain as much knowledge as possible to develop towards senior designer or design leader. Additionally, you like working in an open and informal environment where development is a priority. You also value having responsibility and freedom in your position and can handle this well.

Additionally:

• You have completed an HBO (higher professional education) degree in a civil engineering direction.

• At least +2 years of experience as an infrastructure/civil engineering designer.

• Knowledge of AutoCad and/or Civil 3D.

• Are you familiar with Systems Engineering and do you want to further develop yourself in this?

• Do you take initiative and do you enjoy collaborating towards success?

• Do you reside in the province of Noord-Holland or Utrecht?

At KWS Amsterdam-Utrecht, you work regionally on earth, road, and hydraulic engineering projects. In the northern part of North Holland, Amsterdam, or Utrecht. In the city or in the polder. Small or large projects. From Schiphol to the Markermeer dikes. KWS Amsterdam-Utrecht has it all!

KWS designs, builds, maintains, manages, and operates infra. With its own equipment, subsidiaries, and participations throughout the country, KWS offers a wide range of disciplines. From specialties and small-scale work for municipalities and private individuals to large-scale multidisciplinary projects in which we realize the complete infrastructure. This is done in close cooperation with all parties involved. Our organization, part of VolkerWessels, is fully in development.
