    About us

    Working at Damen Shiprepair Rotterdam

    Damen Shiprepair Rotterdam is part of the Damen Shiprepair and Conversion group. A division that focuses on repair, maintenance, refit and conversion of various types of ships across a wide range of markets such as Offshore oil & gas, installation vessels for wind turbines, Navy and Transport. The organization is characterized by modern business operations in which the customer is central and we can respond efficiently on fluctuating market conditions and operate in a demand-driven supply chain.

    We have a very driven team of estimators who all have a passion for ships, numbers and technology. They will be happy to show you our premises, share their knowledge and experience and welcome you at our yard.

    The role

    This technical-commercial function is aimed at determining the cost price of maritime projects as accurately as possible, the basis of the cost will be the information supplied by the customer.

    This cost price calculation is used as a basis to determine the correct sales price and project lead time. The budget calculation is also a starting point for the preparation and the actual assignment execution.

    The Estimating Department ensures that project considerations are based on the best possible data / calculations, this in order to both increase the chance of getting projects awarded and decrease the chance of accepting loss-making projects.

    The ship repair market is characterized by limited predictability. For example, the scope of activities between the initial assessment of applications to completion can differ greatly. Properly recording/describing the work offered, often in English, is an important point in creating a risk-averse quote.
