Maintenance Technician

When a production line stops, every minute counts. As a Maintenance Technician, you keep machines and installations available and reliable at one of our client companies in the Dutch manufacturing, food, or high-tech industry. You combine planned preventive maintenance with the kind of troubleshooting that gets a line running again fast, across mechanics, electrics, pneumatics, and hydraulics. It is broad technical work, and you are the one people come looking for.
