In 1920, Jan Cornelis van der Leun opened his shop at the harbor of Sliedrecht. Radios and electric lighting were still new and remarkable at the time. What began with providing light and sound soon grew into creating solutions for the shipping industry and the emerging dredging sector.
That hands-on, problem-solving mentality is still at the heart of our work today.
A good employer sees not only what you can do, but also who you are. At Royal Van der Leun, you have the freedom to organize your workday smartly, take training courses, and still have time left for relaxation.
We believe it’s important that you feel good both mentally and physically. That’s why we offer solid employment conditions along with great extras.
