Lead Technician Aerinnova

Lead Technician – Your technical domain at Aerinnova in Gameren

As an experienced technician, would you like to take real responsibility for an entire installation? At VHB Group, you will have that opportunity. We are looking for a Lead Technician who will become the technical point of contact at our Aerinnova location in Gameren. You will be responsible for ensuring that the entire installation functions optimally. From maintenance and malfunctions to supervising conversions and improvements, you will ensure that everything continues to run smoothly.

What you’ll be doing:

As Lead Technician at Aerinnova, you will be technically responsible for the preventive and corrective maintenance of our installation. You will work independently, but not alone: you will liaise with the workshop in Brakel, coordinate maintenance schedules and keep the lines of communication short. You are a real go-getter who sees what needs to be done — and just gets it done.

Your tasks at a glance:

• Performing maintenance on the entire installation in Gameren;

• Independently identifying and resolving malfunctions and technical problems;

• Supervising the construction and conversion of parts for the installation;

• Registering maintenance, inspections and work in the ERP system;

• Ensuring maintenance planning for tools, hoisting and climbing equipment (in consultation with the Brakel workshop);

• First point of contact for malfunctions outside working hours (by telephone);

• Warehouse management at the Gameren location.

• You will report directly to the Workshop Manager.

As an all-round mechanic you report directly to the Workshop Manager.

What do we offer you?

• A competitive salary, based on the knowledge and experience you bring with you;

• An independent role with a lot of freedom and responsibility;

• The opportunity to work on innovative machines that we develop ourselves;

• Plenty of room for your technical input and ideas;

• Working within a close-knit and down-to-earth team — where we roll up our sleeves and get things done;

• A manager who really cares about your personal development;

• 26 days of holiday, a good pension scheme through BPL, and excellent terms of employment;

• A pleasant, stable workplace within an innovative, informal family business.

Who are you?

You are a technical talent who works independently but knows when to ask for help. You have a proactive attitude, are reliable and feel responsible for the continuity of the process. You like structure, overview and tinkering.

What do you bring to the table?

• You are technically skilled, practical and enjoy organising things well. Thanks to your experience, you know what it takes to keep an installation running and manage a team. You are a strong communicator, think ahead and take responsibility.

• You have completed technical training at a minimum of MBO level 3 — preferably in vehicle technology, agricultural mechanisation or mechanical engineering.

• You have demonstrable work experience as a mechanic in electrical engineering, hydraulics and/or metal technology.

• You have experience in managing and motivating colleagues.

• You are able to assess work well and plan accurately.

• You speak good Dutch and can get by in English (an advantage).
