* Coordinate and oversee environmental monitoring programs (soil, groundwater, air, noise)
* Manage sampling, data collection, and analysis, ensuring quality, traceability, and accurate reporting
* Identify environmental risks and implement mitigation and control measures
* Support waste management and pollution prevention, including hazardous materials handling and disposal
* Contribute to the implementation of Environmental Management Systems (EMS) and maintain documentation (e.g. ISO 14001)
* Conduct site inspections and environmental audits, ensuring compliance of contractor activities
* Support incident management (e.g. spills, exceedances) and coordinate follow-up actions
* Contribute to remediation and contamination-related activities (soil, groundwater, PFAS where relevant)
* Prepare regulatory reports and documentation, supporting project and client requirements
* Deliver environmental briefings and training, promoting awareness across site teams

About You

* Experience in an environmental or site-based coordination role, ideally within industrial, construction, or remediation projects
* Solid understanding of environmental compliance, permitting, and monitoring programs
* Familiarity with Belgian environmental regulations; experience in the Antwerp industrial area is a strong advantage
* Knowledge of contaminated land, waste management, or groundwater/soil monitoring is highly valued
* Strong communication skills in Dutch (essential) and English; French is a plus
* A practical, detail-oriented approach, with the ability to manage data and translate requirements into on-site actions
