About this job
As a Construction Project Manager (0.8-1 FTE), you will be our campus construction ‘encyclopaedia’: you will know every wall, button, installation, and building feature inside out. This will allow you to determine which (structural) changes are possible and which are not, and come up with alternative solutions for desired changes. With your knowledge of construction, installations, and electrical and technical engineering, you will manage all planned construction and renovation projects on the campus of Breda University of Applied Sciences (BUas). You know the right parties to involve in the realisation of these projects and, as a project manager, you will ensure smooth cooperation and execution.
You will contribute to the management and monitoring of maintenance work under various contracts with external suppliers. You will contribute to the implementation of the long-term maintenance plan and the sustainability challenges on our campus. All this within the established real estate budgets. Where necessary, you will provide advice and conduct further research. As a participant or leader of the relevant project group, you will work proactively on the various plans.
Working in the Campus & Workplace Services (CW&S) department, you will be the essential link between the back office team, janitors, planning, business partners, contractors and architects, among others. You have a critical eye and are good at keeping track of things, meeting deadlines, and assigning tasks in a timely manner. You can read architectural drawings and are familiar with relevant legal requirements. You will troubleshoot technical and construction problems and request quotes for facility-related services when necessary. In doing so, you keep everything in check and become the key architectural linchpin in our organisation.
