About the company

Our client is a leading Dutch company in the construction industry, specialising in building services for complex residential projects and operating from several locations across the Netherlands.

The company is in a phase of targeted growth and professionalization. Engineering is a critical capability in that journey: design quality, lead times and BIM maturity have a direct impact on project results.

As the company grows, so does the demand for engineering capacity. To keep pace with – and accelerate – that growth, it is setting up a new engineering office in Valencia, Spain. The ambition is a team of up to 15 BIM modellers and engineers, with the first 10 up and running by Q2 2027. As Engineering Manager, you will be based in Valencia and responsible for building and leading this office from the ground up.

Your mission

You will turn the Valencia office into a fully-fledged engineering team that keeps pace with and accelerates the company's growth. You make sure your team delivers technically sound, accurate and buildable designs for Dutch projects – on time, within budget and in line with regulations – while working seamlessly with the project teams in the Netherlands.

- Set up the collaboration between Valencia and the Dutch offices: work allocation, handover points, communication rhythm and quality control.
- Create a strong team culture in Valencia that fits the company, drive engagement and low staff turnover.
- Serve as the operational point of contact for Spanish external partners (e.g. recruitment, HR/payroll, office facilities), in consultation with Dutch management and HR.
