Internships

As a trainee project engineer you will be working in a family atmosphere so that your future is being built! Our sites are located between Antwerp and Brussels where you will perform tasks of both site manager and project manager. If you are still in doubt about which path to take after your studies, an internship as a project engineer at Van Laere is a unique opportunity! Do you have a preference for working out large-scale and diverse class 8 construction projects with project developers and public clients as clients? We put important aspects first so each employee is an important cornerstone within each construction story. Only an enthusiastic and well-trained team realizes a good construction project. This is why we take great pleasure in investing in the most important "engine" behind our organization.

During your internship at HYE, you will be supervised by an experienced site or project manager and get up close and personal with our challenging and complex hydraulic engineering projects. You will have the opportunity to experience for yourself what it is like to lead and monitor a yard or project.

No two construction sites are the same: from renovations of quay walls and locks to the construction of bicycle and pedestrian bridges, jetties and sheet piling - at HYE, it can all be done.

This is not a boring spectator internship, but a real chance to already actively work on one (or more) of our unique projects.
