Civil Engineering Technician / Groundworker | Flevoland

As a Civil Engineering Technician at KWS, you will work on beautiful infrastructure projects in Flevoland and the surrounding area. Together with a permanent crew, you will take on diverse tasks: from earthworks and sewage to roads, paving, and street works.

You will receive clear agreements, good equipment, and colleagues you can rely on. This allows you to do what you are good at: making beautiful and safe work outdoors.

This is what you will do
No two days or projects are the same. One time you are working on a new road or sewage system, the next time on the reconstruction of an industrial estate or the maintenance of existing infrastructure.

You know what is required outdoors, work independently, and step in wherever necessary.

• You perform various earthworks, work together with the machine operator, and layout and inspect trenches, culverts, and slopes.

• You independently install sewage systems, manholes, and piping according to drawings and specifications.

• You work on asphalt and concrete paving and perform street works.

• Together with your crew, you ensure a safe and tidy workplace.

Why work at KWS?
At KWS, you work for a large infrastructure builder, but within a team where people know each other. The lines are short and you are given the space to properly practice your trade and further develop yourself.

You can count on:

• Projects in Flevoland and the surrounding region.

• Experienced colleagues and good equipment.

• Responsibility and space to think along.

• Education and professional training.

• Growth opportunities within KWS and VolkerWessels.

• A crew in which safe working is the priority.

This is what you bring
We are looking for someone who knows outdoor work and loves to roll up their sleeves.

• You have experience as a Civil Engineering Technician, Groundworker, Civil Engineering Employee, Paviour, Road Builder, or in a similar executive role.

• You have experience with earthworks, sewage, street works and/or asphalt and concrete paving.

• You can work independently and are a reliable colleague.

• You work safely and accurately and take responsibility for the quality of your work.

• Preferably, you have a VCA certificate or are willing to obtain one.

Do you still want to learn the trade?
Do you not yet have experience as a Civil Engineering Technician, but are you motivated to learn the trade? Even then, we would love to get in touch with you.

Through the KWS Vakschool, you combine working and learning and are trained to become a professional in civil, road, and hydraulic engineering.

This is what you get from us

• An employment contract of 32 to 40 hours per week.

• A full-time salary between € 3,600 and € 4,300 gross per month, depending on your knowledge and experience.

• 25 vacation days and 20 non-scheduled days according to the Bouw & Infra collective labor agreement.

• A good pension scheme.

• Education and training via the VolkerWessels Academy.

• A company car to get to your work.

• An informal working atmosphere in which colleagues are there for one another.

Your crew in Overijssel
You will work with professionals from the region who know how to get things done. The agreements are clear, the lines are short, and everyone contributes to a good end result. No unnecessary hassle, but working together to ensure the work is carried out well and safely.
