Our people<\/h2>\n

Our success comes from attracting driven and innovative people who share our core values. We are proud to be an internationally recognised institute that practises exceptional science. We strive to value and encourage our employees at every level and in every area of our work. Together we support each other to grow, learn and have fun in what we do.<\/p>\n

Although we work in Dutch, a good command of English in this international working environment is indispensable. VSL does an increasing amount of consultancy and advisory work, which requires a proactive and customer-oriented mindset. In addition, we almost always work as a team.
\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Terms of employment<\/strong>
\nIn addition to our exceptional working environment with professional colleagues, we have attractive terms of employment. They include a competitive salary and full 13th month.

As a leading knowledge institute on measurement and calibration, VSL provides services to governments as well as national and international companies. We operate at the interface of science and commercial markets, or research and the global application of specialised knowledge.<\/p>\n
