IMDC has an inclusive culture that celebrates diversity and strives to be a great place to work.

IMDC’s Measurement team organizes measurement campaigns to collect mainly water related data (e.g. currents, sediments, waves, water quality,…) and reports the observations to other teams within IMDC, authorities or other clients. The team member could act as executor, data processor (analyst), consultant or client-rep.

To strengthen our team we are looking for a hydro surveyor. We are looking for a dynamic person with an innovative and inquisitive mindset, who’s able to work as part of a project team, but can also work independently and is not afraid of taking initiative. You will be able to discover different technical domains and be exposed to different aspects of the project both in national and international context.

You enjoy working outside in all weather conditions and are not afraid of offshore work on vessels . You are pro-active, a team-player and you take initiative to report and ask for feedback.
• Relevant experience with water-related monitoring is an advantage.
• You are interested in staying on top of new trends and technologies.
