Combi Coordinator Friesland

Your energy   

As a Combi Coordinator at Combi SION, you will coordinate—on behalf of the project initiators, Liander and Vitens—the preparation, execution, and follow-up of the combined construction of underground infrastructure projects. You will oversee the projects to ensure that the combined contractors complete them in a customer-friendly manner and in accordance with the schedule, budget, and quality standards.   

  Here's how you can work on today's and tomorrow's energy:  

  Identifying the needs of clients, municipalities, and project initiators during the preliminary consultation and final consultation phases of the project;  

• Determining and recording the detailed schedule for the combined projects to be carried out;  

• Coordinating any claims for damages and acting on behalf of the client in conflict situations;  

• Maintaining contact with various internal and external parties, such as contractors, municipalities, and points of contact within the consortium partners;  

• Balancing the various interests of the different parties;  

• Periodically review the performance of senior management within the combined chain using the combined report.  

• Representing the joint organization at preparatory and implementation meetings.  

We currently have about five Combi coordinators working in Friesland, each serving their own municipalities. Combi coordinators report to the Area Manager within Combi SION.  

Your client   

Combi SION is all about improving, connecting, and predicting—and, above all, avoiding duplication of effort. That’s why we work tirelessly with our team and partners to eliminate duplication in infrastructure projects, while also developing the most flexible IT systems and continuously optimizing processes. By advising, guiding, and coordinating, we’re optimally preparing for the energy transition with our people, structure, and systems. Every day, we ensure less disruption and lower costs for our customers.  

We can only do this because we work with innovative thinkers and smart team players at our grid operators, contractors, and Mijnaansluiting.nl—people with the right vision, people who see challenges as opportunities for improvement.  

After all, we’re all working together toward a single goal: satisfied customers through lower costs and less disruption. SION is an initiative of the network operators Liander and Vitens and operates in Flevoland, Friesland, and Gelderland. SION also works closely with VodafoneZiggo, Stedin, KabelNoord, and KPN NetwerkNL.  

Your background   

You enjoy working in a team and take a proactive approach. You challenge those around you to achieve concrete improvements. You have strong customer service skills and use your communication and organizational skills to achieve your goals. Even in hectic situations, you maintain a clear overview and set priorities. In addition to knowledge and insight into energy distribution, you also have experience with planning and some knowledge of finance and administration. We also require:  

• HBO working and thinking level;  

• Experience in underground infrastructure and telecommunications;  

• Experience with civil engineering work;  

• Knowledge of combined works,  

• Knowledge of and experience with project management methods; project management certification (e.g., Prince2) is a plus;  

• Excellent command of the Dutch language, both spoken and written;  

• Possess excellent communication skills;  

• Knowledge of (automated) planning methods;  

• Key competencies: persuasiveness, organizational skills, flexibility, communication, and attention to detail.  
• We are looking for someone with the right combination of technical expertise and strong communication skills to coordinate the projects.
• Given the region where the candidate will be working, understanding and speaking the Frisian language is a plus
