About

Do you want to be the person who makes an entire railway system work seamlessly? As a Signalling Project Manager Engineer at Buhlmann, you act as a technical consultant: you analyse procedures, detect design errors, advise the project team, and serve as the final checkpoint ensuring that an installation is safe, correct and operational. A role with major responsibility, visible impact and real influence on decisions — perfect for engineers who want to make a meaningful difference. About BUHLMANN N.V. For over 70 years, BUHLMANN N.V. has been a trusted player in railway systems and signalling in Belgium. We stand out through deep technical expertise, a strong hands-on mentality, and a problem-solving mindset. Unlike large engineering firms with narrow roles, our engineers and project managers oversee the entire project cycle: from engineering and prototyping to installation, commissioning, maintenance, and technical interventions. This results in a technically rich, challenging, and highly educational role with real impact. We work for major clients such as SNCB/NMBS, STIB/MIVB, De Lijn, TEC, and Lineas, supporting them with: Analysis and engineering Design and prototyping Installation on rail and site locations Commissioning and functional validation Maintenance, troubleshooting, and continuous optimization We deliver projects such as: New switch control systems and level crossings Modernization and expansion of existing installations Electromechanical systems for workshops facilities Maintenance and optimization of hundreds of control installations Troubleshooting and technological upgrades Through strategic partnerships with Pintsch and Hanning-Kahl, we combine in-house technical know-how with continuous service, including preventive maintenance and fast interventions. We are expanding and looking for a Engineering Project Manager (or similar profiles such as Project Engineer, Technical Project Lead, Railway Engineer, Rolling Stock Specialist, System Engineer) who enjoys taking responsibility for technology, execution, client interaction, and project outcomes and will contribute to improving the railway systems and have a direct societal impact. More information about our rolling stock activities is available on our website: Buhlmann Rolling Stock. As a Engineering Project Manager, you are the central point of contact within our railway projects and rolling stock operations. What you will do Manage technical projects in railway engineering, electromechanics, and signaling from design to delivery. Coordinate internal teams (engineering, site teams, maintenance, administration) and external partners such as Pintsch and Hanning-Kahl. Lead site meetings, monitor schedules and deadlines, and ensure compliance with quality, budget, and contractual agreements. Oversee the realization of prototypes, testing, assembly, and commissioning. Analyze technical issues and provide support for malfunctions, maintenance, and optimizations during the warranty period or in operation. Contribute to continuous improvement regarding ISO, VCA, safety, and site efficiency. Spend regular time on-site or in maintenance facilities, not just behind a desk. How you work: In a flat organization with fast decision-making. With short communication lines and daily collaboration with technical teams. With autonomy, supported during the onboarding period and regular alignment with management. Who you collaborate with Internal engineers, site managers, assembly and maintenance technicians Administration and planning teams International suppliers and technology partners 90% of your work takes place in Belgium, with supplier or site visits in Western Europe (±10%). Education Master's degree in industrial engineering (electromechanics, electricity, mechanics, or equivalent). At least 5 years of experience in project management or technical projects, preferably in electromechanical installations, automation, or industrial systems, with responsibility for coordination, planning, execution, and maintenance. Skills Strong technical understanding of electromechanics, electrical installations, signalling, or industrial automation. Excellent communication skills and customer focus. Analytical, organised and able to prioritise. Flexible to work both in the office and on railway sites. Languages English or French (with at least passive knowledge of the other). Good understanding of Dutch German is a plus. Personality Team player, pragmatic, solution-oriented, stress-resistant, and ownership-driven. Autonomous but comfortable seeking support when necessary. Fits a culture without micromanagement, based on trust and responsibility. Experience in people management is a plus but not mandatory — technical maturity and logical insight are more important. Why This Role is Unique You take on the full project cycle, not a narrow function. You gain extensive technical knowledge in railway engineering, prototyping, and industrial systems. Your work has a direct impact on Belgium's railway and tram network. You work in a company of real professionals, with short decision lines and professional pride. Benefits A versatile technical position with responsibility and autonomy. Career growth path towards Senior Project Manager or Technical Director. Intensive internal training and skill development in railway systems and signalling. Stable employer with strong growth and modernization. Competitive salary with fringe benefits, company car, laptop, and smartphone. Collaboration with industry leaders such as Pintsch and Hanning-Kahl.
