  Holland Engineering

  Aug 2004 - Jun 2010

  Partner, Project Manager Retail & Safety Coordinator

  After my studies I joined Holland Engineering. This is a small construction / engineering firm specialised in shop fitting and bulletproof security in the retail and petrol business. The Holland Engineering team is a group of professionals with versatile backgrounds.As Project Manager Retail I lead the projects in the construction and security of offices, petrol stations and shops in the Benelux. Because of the relative small size of the company I have business management and commercial tasks in acquisition, administration, purchasing, marketing and personnel. I am also appointed as safety coordinator.In my job I manage the projects of Holland Engineering from the start up to the completion. At the start of a project I analyse the feasibility with the client, than I am responsible for the quotation. In most projects, Holland Engineering works as the main contractor, which means that in addition to its own staff also subcontractors and suppliers should be controlled well. After the contract award I take care of the work preparation and planning. During the construction phase I control the costs, quality, planning and architectural appearance with the client and architect. After completion of the project I am the contact person for the customer to solve problems arising during operation. Show less

  Aviation is very dynamic and because of that photogenic. As a photographer you have to know how to operate in these circumstances. Most important is the safety of the plane, air traffic and persons involved. Furthermore the working environment has several limits. In the end the soul of aviation must appear on the picture. European Aviation Photography meets all those standards.
