About Waterbedrijf Groningen

With approximately 235 permanent employees and a relatively small service area, we may not be one of the largest water companies in the Netherlands. However, we are highly ambitious. In addition to ensuring clean, reliable, and great-tasting drinking water every day, we also address societal issues related to public health, nature conservation, sustainability, governance, spatial planning, employment, and innovation.

Working at Waterbedrijf Groningen

Water moves all of us. Working at Waterbedrijf Groningen is a source of inspiration, energy, and fulfillment for us. We work together to ensure water for today and for the future. To help us with this mission, we are looking for people to join our team in the areas of drinking water, industrial water, and sustainability.

It is important to keep learning and developing because stagnation is regression.

For all your Questions

Yes! You sure will. This also means that you will simply continue to be paid if there is no work. With a permanent contract, it is also easier to get a mortgage and the chance of being let go is much smaller. And if you already have a permanent contract with Yes, the client where you work through Yes will also offer you a permanent contract upon takeover. This is even required to be done because of successive employership.

Good question. Firstly, Yes is a good choice because you immediately get a permanent contract. But of course that’s not all. We care a lot about your development, also in the long term. We don’t just say it, we also do it! This way you can continue to develop.

We also help you choose. We of course also know that there are many vacancies and opportunities for tech professionals in the current market. But which company really suits you? In which culture do you feel good? Does the job fit well with your ambitions? And of course you have your own wishes, for example about your salary. But is that feasible? Or maybe you’re aiming too low?

At Yes we know the companies in your region and we can tell you everything about them. Based on your ambitions and wishes, we look for and make the perfect match, sometimes even at companies that have no vacancies at all. We can then create these ourselves based on your experience, ambition and wishes.

You will never earn less through Yes, we pay at least the same or even more than if you got the job yourself. The moment you are seconded to a company where it is the intention that you will later be employed there yourself, we look at the salary house of the client. The salary is then determined together with the client and you. You are therefore valued at least the same as your colleague, even if you work there via Yes.

If you work for a client with the intention that you will be employed there after your secondment period, we apply the collective labor agreement of the client on the following points:

  • Salary
  • Holidays
  • Travel reimbursement
  • Lease car
  • Overtime rates

If applicable, we also take over matters such as ADV days, an end-of-year bonus or a 13th month. This is required by law and this is also checked with the NEN4400 certification, whereby you receive an SNA quality mark as a secondment agency. Of course we have these.

In addition, we follow the NBBU Collective Labor Agreement for other matters. Everyone at Yes receives a full employment contract, with which we continue to pay you 100% in the event of illness and immediately accrue pension. Everything well arranged, that’s Yes!
