THE POSITION
As a Project Procurement Officer for the Business Unit Dredging & Infra focusing on tender procurement, you play a key role in the success of our tenders across all four product lines Infra Marine, Infra Land, Capital Dredging and Maintenance.
This position focuses primarily on complex Infra Land tenders in the Netherlands and internationally. From dike reinforcement programmes and quay wall renovations to large scale area developments, you develop and implement sourcing and procurement strategies that support commercial, technical and contractual tender objectives. You review tender documentation, define procurement packages and translate project requirements into a clear procurement approach that balances value, risk and delivery certainty. Working closely with Category Managers, Commercial Managers, Estimators and Tender Teams, you connect local and international supply markets with project needs. You act as the procurement representative within the tender team and ensure timely, high quality procurement input throughout the tender process.
YOUR IMPACT
You create value by bringing together commercial, technical and operational interests into one clear procurement strategy. In often complex and fast moving tender environments, you identify opportunities, manage risks and build strong supplier engagement strategies, even when information is limited. You work closely with suppliers and internal stakeholders to optimise costs, strengthen contractual compliance and support informed decision making throughout the tender phase. By combining market knowledge with a structured approach, you help teams develop competitive and reliable bids. Together with colleagues across the organisation, you contribute to stronger procurement performance and continuous improvement within Van Oord.
