About us
Damen Shiprepair Amsterdam is part of the Damen Shiprepair and Conversion Group.

We work with 110 permanent employees and, depending on workload, a flexible pool of temporary staff.
The shipyard in Amsterdam Noord is characterized by a strong and driven team who all share the same passion for ship repair. Hard work happens here, but also a lot of laughter. Our workforce consists of as many as 25 different nationalities. In addition, we constantly have different ships at the yard. This brings different kinds of projects, work, and customers each time, creating a dynamic workplace where no day is the same.
We are a project-driven organization; every ship that comes in is seen as a unique project that we work on with passion together with a project team, in collaboration with the customer and subcontractors. Together with you, we make sure the ship can sail again as quickly as possible.
