FAQ's

What is the difference between a Project Engineer and a Project Manager?

Project Engineers focus on technical aspects like design review, feasibility, execution follow-up, compliance and quality. Project Managers handle overall coordination, stakeholder management and project delivery.

Will I be on-site or office-based?

Both. You review designs off-site but also visit sites to validate execution, troubleshoot technical issues and follow up on progress.

Which sectors are available for Project Engineers in Belgium?

Industrial installations, manufacturing, energy, utilities, civil works, infrastructure, piping/mechanics, high-tech facilities, and construction.

Can I grow or specialise in a certain technical discipline?

Yes. Many Project Engineers progress to Senior Project Engineer, Technical Lead, Project Manager or specialise in areas like piping, mechanical, electrical or plant engineering.
