New construction and renovation
Sander now works as an EPC-manager. He is responsible for the engineering, procurement and execution of new-build and renovation projects within the factory environment. Sander gives an example:"In one of the tank parks we placed a new tank next to an existing tank. We built the manifold with extra valves. We also connected the tanks with each other - and with other parts of the factory. Both physically and software-wise.
Accessible, friendly, involved
Sander is still happy with his return to Dosign. “What I like about the consultants is that they are accessible. The contact is friendly. They also remain involved. They call me regularly to ask me how things are going. Moreover, they like to contribute to my personal development. And I get a lease car.”
