Senior Project Manager

Good question. It would be interesting if we have a few things in common. So, let's talk about you. And us. Together.

We love what we do. That’s why we always go the extra mile and have a strong sense of responsibility. We tackle the tough stuff without ever taking ourselves too seriously. It's our real interest that moves us forward and motivates us to develop new ways of thinking.

When you work for us, we work for you. We want you to be confident, creative, and share our passion for excellence. And we aim to give you the power to succeed. We do this by making you feel welcome, supported, heard and safe in your working environment.

At Aedes, we work in a team with two main disciplines for every project. Design and Execution. The design discipline is represented by a developer and execution discipline is represented by a project manager. These two disciplines work together from the start. The developer is responsible for the total development and is leading during the design phase up to and including permits. During the realization, the project manager is leading. The focus for the developer is therefore at the beginning and that of the project manager at the middle to the end of the project. Both remain involved throughout the entire process. Team effort between these two disciplines is therefore of the utmost importance.
