Civil Engineering Work Preparer
You will work on projects in public spaces, such as roads, residential areas, and waterways. Your role is to ensure that plans are prepared in such a way that they can be built outdoors without complications. Within an urban development department, you take on this responsibility in significant projects, ranging from major maintenance to complete area developments.
What you will do. As a work preparer, you ensure that a plan is not only well-documented but can also be built.
- You review a design and immediately think through: is this technically correct, is it feasible, and what will it mean on site?
- You elaborate designs into specification drawings for roads, site layout, and waterways.
- You draw up RAW specifications, create cost estimates, and manage the tendering process.
- You lay the foundation for the execution, and this foundation must be accurate.
- You are involved in projects from the very beginning, contributing to choices, identifying potential bottlenecks, and proposing solutions.
- During execution, you remain involved and liaise with project managers and supervisors if practical situations differ from the plan.
- You have extensive contact with contractors and engineering firms.
- In construction teams and collaborations, you ensure that plans and execution align.
- You oversee the whole and ensure that everyone works with the same principles.
Profile
You look beyond just the drawing or the specifications and want to understand how things turn out on site.
- You take responsibility and contribute critically.

- In projects with various interests, you maintain an overview and continue to collaborate.
- You feel at home in a role where you need to switch, think along, and sometimes firmly make your point, always with the collective result in mind.
What they ask
- Experience with reading and writing (RAW) specifications
- Experience with CAD (Microstation is a plus)
