As a structural engineer at Seconed, you are responsible for ensuring the structural safety of a wide range of construction projects. You make sure that structures not only work on paper, but also meet the highest standards in practice when it comes to safety, quality, and regulatory compliance. You critically assess design and execution documents for risks, structural safety, and adherence to applicable laws and regulations (such as the Dutch Building Decree, Eurocodes, and local requirements).
Work at Seconed – Make a Difference in the Quality of Dutch Construction!
Are you ready to use your expertise on projects where safety is not a choice, but a requirement?
At Seconed, you assess the technical quality of the most complex buildings and infrastructure — independently, critically, and with real impact.
About Seconed
Seconed is the independent assessment partner for high-risk construction projects (such as CC3). We don’t build ourselves. Instead, we ensure that others do it right — technically, structurally, in terms of building physics, fire safety, installations, and compliance.
From bridges and tunnels to hospitals, airports, and distribution centers: our projects are technically demanding, often large-scale, and always socially significant. Mistakes are not an option. We provide certainty before construction begins.
You’ll join a compact team of specialists who dive deep into projects and assess them together. You’ll work closely with colleagues from five disciplines, ensuring designs are correct — not just on paper, but in practice.
