Senior Surveyor

Do you keep your eyes open above and below water and does state-of-the-art maritime technology fascinate you beyond measure? From deep under water to high in the air, at Van Oord you can indulge your dreams. As one of our Senior Surveyors you will be the role model for our future surveyors. Is that what you want??? If so, apply for the role of Surveyor at Van Oord Your Impact

At Van Oord, we build landmark maritime works which are often essential to ensure people's safety (and dry feet) and contribute to sustainable development. We love our work, but we don't love surprises. That's why your role as Surveyor is so important. You supply the project teams on site (from the Afsluitdijk in the Netherlands to the tropical Maldives or even off the coast of Taiwan) with topographic and hydrographic information, based on which important decisions are made. On a rotation basis and with a good work/ life balance, you provide the information required for the safe, responsible, sustainable and efficient execution of projects costing millions. Whether it's land reclamation, an offshore wind farm or the construction of a port, the project teams need to be able to trust your information implicitly. From setting up, maintaining and calibrating the advanced measurement equipment to analysing and incorporating the data into accurate and reliable maps, thanks to your efforts we will never be stumbling around in the dark. This is rightly regarded as a vital link and indeed a unique role, calling for your knowledge and ingenuity on and below the water. Other responsibilities will be:

• You will be responsibility for training our junior surveyors to a higher level in their position;
• You also give your advise on creative solutions with significant complexity for the tender and/or execution phase of our projects.

  Your workplace

  You will be part of Van Oord’s Survey department, and your primary focus is on using your technical expertise to provide others with the information they need and challenge stakeholders in their decision making and ensure a safe and (cost) efficient project execution. About You
