This international consultancy are Engineers, Architects, Consultants and Environmental Scientists with over 4000 professionals operating world-wide. They are currently seeking to recruit a Senior Dam Expert to join their busy team in Nijmegen.
At present, their Advisory Group International Water Resources & Ecology integrates 18 professionals working on projects worldwide. In a global context where the demands on water and environment become more and more interwoven and conflicting, they advise and guide their clients on the technical, institutional, environmental and economic aspects of integrated water resources management. The advisory group focuses on i) flood prevention and mitigation, ii) drought prevention and relief, iii) urban drainage and iv) (multipurpose) dams. Their multidisciplinary approach yields tailor-made solutions, embedded in the specific local conditions.
