Because of a well-filled order book and the fact that three new vessels have been ordered, it goes without saying that Jan De Nul Group will continue its 2010 recruitment boom in 2011.
In 2010 Jan De Nul did not only win the Randstad Award, making it the most attractive employer in Belgium for the second year in a row, but it also recruited no less than 380 people, among them the company’s 500th engineer, which is unique in Belgium. At the end of 2010, 5416 people were working for Jan De Nul overall, with an average age of 38 years.
2011 shall be a year in which Jan De Nul Group will keep looking for young and dynamic talent to man all sites and vessels nationally and internationally.
About Jan De Nul Group
Since the establishment of the company, Jan De Nul has aimed at a dynamic and family corporate culture. Jan De Nul was founded in 1938 by father Jan Frans Jozef De Nul as a civil construction company. Responding to the market opportunities at that time, the De Nul family accepted its first dredging work in 1951. Soon after the first international dredging project was won. Since then Jan De Nul has grown into a world leader in the dredging industry.
The group would never have attained that position if it had not had the necessary courage and vision. Courage of the founder, but also of the next generation, which provides the group with an impeccable reputation across the five continents today.
The activities of Jan De Nul Group are based on three pillars: dredging activities, civil construction and environmental works. Jan De Nul Group has the world’s most modern and most technologically advanced dredging fleet at its disposal. In 2009 Jan De Nul Group reached a turnover of 2.1 billion euros (69% dredging activities, 18 offshore projects, 11% civil works and 2% environmental projects).
