International Project Engineer (english version)

Your day as a International Project Engineer?

That depends on where you wake up. In France, America or anywhere near Tilburg. As a International Project Engineer you are ultimately responsible for the planning, implementation, testing, commissioning and evaluation of our projects.

After we have acquired a project, we start mounting and assembling the machine in our 5000 m2 production hall (wow!). You prepare the project planning, budget and quality requirements and ensure adherence. Do you have the right people in your team? Is everything still on schedule? If you run into something, you consult with the project manager or your colleagues from engineering. You can see them from the production hall.

About five times a year you can be found on site for a period of 2 to 4 weeks. While there you coordinate the construction of the line, together with local engineers. As you are also actively involved with the installation as a cooperating foreman, you know exactly when the machine is really ready for delivery: when everything works 100% after several tests and the customer is satisfied.

Work completed? You quickly take a final ride in that American pick-up that you have been driving for three weeks and then fly home again.
