Lead mechanical engineer Water

Coordinate complex projects and contribute to the growth of the department.

Iv focuses on the design and construction supervision of all water-related projects, including drinking water, industrial water, wastewater, and water level management. Due to the growth of our activities in this area, we are looking for an enthusiastic Lead Mechanical Engineer. In this role, you will be responsible for the design and engineering of the mechanical/installation technical components within a wide variety of projects. You will work as part of a team with civil engineering, electrical engineering, and instrumentation disciplines on complex technical objects, create cost estimates, draft specifications, and translate these into a mechanical design note/tender document. The projects you will be working on mainly involve polder and drainage pumps, locks and weirs, (waste)water treatment plants, sewage pumping stations, and associated (pressure) pipelines. Experience with one or more of these objects is therefore essential. Experience with design in Autodesk applications is a plus.

In terms of water, we face a dual challenge: on one hand, we need water for drinking, industry, agriculture, transportation, and recreational purposes. On the other hand, water poses a threat through flooding and rising sea levels. Since water quality, transport, safety, and management often go hand in hand, solutions must be sought across this entire spectrum. Iv provides comprehensive and innovative advice for issues of any size and complexity in the field of water installations and civil engineering related to water. Sustainability is paramount in this regard. For example, Iv has developed the CO2 tool! This tool calculates the CO2 reduction in water treatment processes. Would you also like to work on sustainable solutions in the field of water quality? Iv has the most challenging projects ready for you!

You have a bachelor or master in Mechanical Engineering, and you have approximately five to ten years of work experience in similar projects. You can organize multidisciplinary and complex projects while keeping an overview of the entire process. Equally important to us are your enthusiasm and soft skills. You know exactly how to uncover real customer needs, can tactfully negotiate compromises, and understand how to get the best out of your team. We also expect that you stay continuously updated on the latest developments and actively think about how we can apply these in our projects.

What do we have to offer you?

A challenging and varied job at the most diverse engineering company in the Netherlands! You can count on:

• The most incredible projects in all sectors: You will work on high-quality solutions that genuinely benefit society. From the world’s largest offshore wind platforms, bridges and lock complexes to factories, water treatment plants and submarines.

• A professional and pleasant working environment: At Iv, you will find an accessible working atmosphere where hard work goes hand in hand with fun. For example, we visit the European or World Cup Football Championships every two years. We celebrate New Year in style at the Efteling theme park and organise social summer barbecues and much more!

• Flexible terms and conditions of employment: choose to receive a higher salary, extra holiday days or both!

• Excellent secondary terms and conditions: 31 days annual leave, annual bonus (7%), profit sharing, flexible pension scheme and travel expenses and a work-from-home allowance.

• Ample development opportunities: We offer a wide range of training, courses and development opportunities to help you become even better in your profession.

 
In short: At Iv, you will work alongside 1,400 other specialists on some of the greatest challenges of our time while having lots of fun. That’s what we call: Engineering that excites.
