After gaining initial project experience in Germany with fellow contractor Bauwens Köln, Claudius Schwartz joined ZÜBLIN International in 2006, taking responsibility for various projects in Russia.
Due to a lack of further project opportunities at the time, he returned to Bauwens Köln in 2009 to lead the construction of a new office and business premises in Munich as project manager.
In 2011, Claudius Schwartz rejoined our group to oversee the construction of the Olympic Village in Sochi, the base for the 2014 Winter Olympic Games. This led to his appointment as Regional Director of the newly established branch in Moscow, where he was responsible for the full commercial management and end-to-end oversight – from acquisition to the delivery – of several diverse and complex projects.
Strengthened by his international experience, Claudius Schwartz has been working closer to his home country Germany since January 2024. From our headquarters in Antwerp, he leads the Benelux branch of our group, which consists of four local regions across three separate legal entities in Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg. As General Manager, he is responsible for the day-to-day management, the commercial network and the technical execution of our projects.
At STRABAG in the Benelux, we combine decades of experience with a strong regional foundation. Backed by our technical expertise and innovative strength of our international construction group, we transform shared ambitions into thoughtful, future-proof solutions for the built environment.
