Key responsibilities

Approximately 90% of your working time will be spent travelling and working at customer sites. The remaining time will be spent at our location in Nijkerk, which serves as your home base. Here, you will work together with your colleagues in the Service Team, preparing jobs and materials.

Your role involves more than simply carrying out assigned tasks. You carefully assess the situation at the customer's site, identify potential problems and provide advice on maintenance, replacement and improvements. You will visit a variety of manufacturing companies, giving you a unique behind-the-scenes look at their operations. You will see how different products are made and the role our conveyor belts play in these processes. This means that you are not only a technical specialist, but also an important point of contact and the face of Habasit at the customer's site.

At Habasit, we work together as one Service Team. You have your own area of expertise and responsibilities, but you also support your colleagues whenever needed. After all, delivering the best results for our customers is a team effort.

What we look for

You are practical, have technical insight and enjoy solving problems. You do not need to know everything about conveyor belts yet, but you do have a solid technical background and are motivated to learn and develop your skills.

You have:

  • A completed technical vocational education (MBO level).
  • Experience working with machinery, tools or technical maintenance.
  • A valid driving licence (category B).
  • Experience using computers and digital systems.
  • Good command of the Dutch language.
  • Good physical fitness and the ability and willingness to perform physical work.
  • Flexibility regarding working hours and willingness to participate in on-call shifts.

A basic VCA safety certificate, forklift certificate or working-at-heights certificate would be an advantage. Don't have these yet? We are happy to explore the possibilities of obtaining them.

You also recognise yourself in the following:

  • You enjoy working with your hands and have a good technical understanding.
  • You are solution-oriented and able to work independently.
  • You are customer-focused, communicate clearly and consider the customer's needs.
  • You work safely, take responsibility and keep your commitments.
  • You can easily switch between different customers, locations and activities.
  • You are hands-on and willing to support your colleagues whenever needed.

Experience with conveyor belts is an advantage, but not a requirement. We are happy to teach you the trade and offer plenty of opportunities to develop yourself further within the role.

What we offer

At Habasit, you will have a varied job in which you can work independently, learn a lot and become part of a dedicated team.

  • A gross monthly salary between €2,900 and €3,600 based on full-time employment, depending on your experience and knowledge.
  • A profit-sharing scheme based on the company's results.
  • 31 vacation and additional leave days.
  • A pension scheme with a voluntary employee contribution.
  • 8% holiday allowance.
  • A net allowance of €250 per month when participating in on-call shifts.
  • Your own service van and mobile phone.
  • Personal onboarding: you will get to know our products, processes and colleagues during an individual induction period.
  • Plenty of development opportunities: room to learn new skills and grow within Habasit.
  • An open working environment where teamwork and being yourself are central.
  • An active staff association that regularly organises enjoyable activities.

A behind-the-scenes look: How It's Made

As a Field Service Technician, you will visit places that you would not normally get to see. You will discover how a wide variety of products are manufactured and learn about the role conveyor belts play in these processes. It is a great combination of technology, variety and a unique behind-the-scenes look at different companies.
