The role

At WSP, we work towards a sustainable living environment. As a Soil & Environment Project Leader, you will provide direction to diverse soil and environmental projects and ensure that plans are successfully brought from initiative to execution. You are the connecting factor between clients, project teams, and stakeholders, contributing to projects that make a real impact on the physical living environment.

What you'll do

As a Soil & Environment Project Leader, you are responsible for the substantive and financial management of projects. You lead multidisciplinary teams, monitor planning, quality, and budget, and serve as the primary point of contact for clients. In addition, you think along not only about execution but also about the strategic issues at play within projects.

You will work on diverse challenges, such as inner-city redevelopments, infrastructure projects, energy transition projects, and sustainable area developments. With your expertise, you know how to translate complex soil and environmental issues into feasible and future-proof solutions.

You are a sparring partner for clients, identify commercial opportunities, and build sustainable relationships. At the same time, you ensure that projects run smoothly and that your team can achieve its best.

What are we looking for in you?

  • A completed HBO (higher professional education) or WO (university) degree in environmental science, earth sciences, civil engineering, or a similar field;

  • Several years of experience within soil and environmental projects;

  • Experience in leading projects and managing project teams;

  • Knowledge of relevant laws and regulations, including the Environment Act (Omgevingswet);

  • Experience with client contact, acquisition, and relationship management;

  • An entrepreneurial attitude and strong communication skills;

  • The ability to successfully connect technology, environment, and business interests.
