Ballast Nedam consists of 18 organisational units, including Ballast Nedam International Projects (International). International builds large-scale and complex projects worldwide, often under challenging circumstances. The business unit is growing rapidly, particularly in West Africa and the Caribbean. There is a strong focus on Northern and Western Europe.
"We have the ability to (de)mobilise quickly and to deal flexibly with changing circumstances,” says Managing Director Roy van Eijsden. “This is a fundamental success factor in an international environment. We apply this everywhere and see it as an added value that we clearly emphasise. We want to be a partner for our clients, and good partnership contributes to efficient work."
"Working with local people is an important part of the way we work and is integrated into our organisation. Working like this requires a different approach to each situation, whereby specific training of our employees is extra important, allowing International to better adapt its activities to the local market."
Safety concessions are never made. It's about establishing and keeping trust among employees and working in a safe environment. Safety can never be compromised, it is the absolute top priority at any work.
