Site Supervisor
As a Site Supervisor at TRIBE Engineering, you are the one who maintains the overview when it matters most. You are at the heart of the project, keeping a tight rein on operations and ensuring everything runs as agreed. From installation to commissioning, you know exactly what is happening, who is doing what, and when adjustments are needed. You possess a helicopter view but dive into the technical details just as easily. You understand engineering, manage people, and serve as the primary point of contact on-site. Projects only become truly successful when they are led well, and that is where you come in.

That’s why we make sure you have plenty of room for relaxation outside of work. Work hard, play hard. Our projects are challenging, our outings are legendary, and we believe that staying fit and energized is essential to performing well.

What will you be doing?
To expand our team, we are looking for a Site Supervisor to lead our projects on-site and ensure everything runs smoothly. You are responsible for the overview, progress, and collaboration between all parties involved. Whether it concerns technicians, engineers, or the client, you are the primary point of contact and make sure everyone knows exactly what to expect.
You monitor the planning, identify risks, and intervene when necessary. You understand the engineering well enough to engage in technical discussions and make decisions, but you never lose sight of the bigger picture. You also play a key role during the commissioning phase, ensuring that systems are correctly delivered and put into operation.
Other key activities involve:
- Leading teams on-site;
- Monitoring planning, quality, and safety;
- Serving as the primary point of contact for the client and project team;
- Coordinating activities during installation and commissioning;
- Identifying and resolving bottlenecks on-site;
- Coordinating with project management and engineering;
- Ensuring a controlled and successful delivery.
What do you need for this role?
For this position, we are looking for someone with technical insight and a healthy dose of guts. Whether you have two right hands or, as a lefty, two left hands, it doesn’t matter to us. What counts is that you know what you’re doing. You have at least a vocational degree (MBO 4) in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Marine Officer, or a similar field and have already gained substantial practical experience (5+ years). Engineering is in your DNA; that much is clear.
You hold a valid category B driver’s license and work in a safe and responsible manner. You already possess certifications such as VCA VOL and NEN 3140 VP, or you are willing to obtain them through us. Experience with NEN 3840 VP is considered a distinct advantage.
Additionally, you are someone who works independently, thinks in terms of solutions, and takes ownership of your work. You communicate clearly with colleagues and clients and know exactly what is needed to get the job done right. You can be serious when the situation demands it, but you never lose your sense of humor. To us, that last part is just as important as your technical skills.
Where will you be working?
The TRIBE office is located in Houten, but we work on projects throughout the Netherlands and across the globe. We always plan these projects together with you, ensuring that travel time is minimized so you can fully enjoy your work, friends, family, and hobbies. Balance is key.
Or is this the role for you?
Once we receive your application, we’ll do our best to get to know you as well as possible, but above all, to introduce ourselves properly to you. If all goes well, you will become part of our family for the years to come. It’s essential that you have no remaining questions and feel absolutely certain that you belong with us.
Interested? If you can see yourself in this role and would like to meet us, please complete your application and get in touch. We look forward to welcoming you soon!
During our introductory meetings, you’ll have the chance to ask us anything. This way, you get a clear picture of who we are and what the role entails, while we get to know you better. Want to score some extra points? Start the conversation with your best joke!
Had some good conversations and almost ready to sign? You are always welcome to shadow a colleague on a project to see and feel for yourself if this is the right move for you. We’re easygoing about it and you get to keep your TRIBE t-shirt afterwards!
The interviews are done, the vibe is right, and everyone is satisfied. It’s time to sign the contract!
