Engineers

Become a designer of the future in our ports.

For your job, you wish for lots of responsibility, large construction sites, and you may want to make full use of your planning talent, right? A stiff breeze around your nose doesn't deter to you and you love the harbor atmosphere? Then you’ll feel right at home with us! As an engineer at Niedersachsen Ports, you plan new infrastructure projects and berths, or implement maintenance measures in our ports. This enables you to make a contribution to a functioning port infrastructure in the State of Niedersachsen and pave the way for a smooth and future-proof freight handling. With us, you work autonomously and are responsible for large construction projects from A to Z: From planning, to the first strike of the pile driver, to the inauguration. In this way, you manage everything from a single source in a team with your colleagues.

 

 


Real Life, Large and Tangible Construction Sites

Our ports never stand still. There is a lot to do for you as an engineer. On our page Engineering & Technical Department, you can get a first impression of our major construction projects. 

But there are not only major construction sites at NPorts. Many of our construction projects are maintenance measures that need to be implemented while the port is in operation. As an engineer, you therefore often work in ongoing port operations and in constant coordination with the cargo handling companies. This complexity requires very special skills from our engineers. It is not only the relationships between the individual components and systems that need to be understood. Coordination skills, organizational skills and a great deal of diplomacy, plus negotiating skills are also crucial for this job. A challenging task that never gets boring.
 

Innovation Through Digitization and Sustainability

Digitization plays a major role for us: We are the first port company to launch BIM projects and will continue to follow this path. In addition, we are very committed to sustainable issues and have installed one Seabin skimmer each in our Emden and Wilhelmshaven branches. Support us in these innovative projects, get involved, and contribute your ideas for a future-oriented port world at NPorts.
