Your Role
A Job With Opportunities And Responsibilities
At Jan De Nul, you supervise the operational readiness of an entire vessel. You travel to projects worldwide and work with electrical and technical staff on board. You have the skills to organise large‑scale maintenance activities and to assist an electrician or a technician on site.

You will learn on the job with the support of the Fleet Manager and colleagues from most of our departments.
Two months on, one month off
Depending on the phase of your project and your development, you will work at the office in Aalst or on one of our projects worldwide. In Aalst, you work a forty‑hour week with occasional work from home. As an expat on a project worldwide, you work two months with 12‑hour workdays, six days a week, followed by one month off.
