You work independently and think practically

Pay & benefits

What you'll get

A job with a lot of freedom and strong conditions:

Market-conform salary according to Metalektro collective labor agreement
40 days off (27 vacation + 13 ADV)
Partially contribution-free pension
Own service van with professional tools
Phone and tablet
You simply start your day from home
In collaboration with planning, much freedom to determine your own schedule
Internal training and growth opportunities
Good onboarding process with an experienced colleague
Informal working atmosphere in a stable organization

The role

Imagine: you start your day with a cup of coffee at home, step into your own service van, and drive directly to your first customer. There, a warehouse is at a standstill because a forklift has broken down, and you ensure everything is running again. As a service technician at Crown, you are the one who ensures companies can keep going. Without you, everything literally stops.

What you'll do

As a service technician, you are responsible for your own region. You start your day from home and drive directly to customers.

There, you will:

Troubleshoot and resolve malfunctions, from electrical to hydraulic and mechanical problems
Perform maintenance and inspections so that machines continue to run reliably
Provide inspections according to applicable standards
Advise customers on use, maintenance, and safety
Think along about improvements and extra service

You work independently, but you are never alone. Stuck on something? Then colleagues are immediately ready to help you.

How you'll work

You work independently within your region, with good tools and high-quality machines. No two days are the same: one time you are solving a malfunction, the next time you are helping a customer use their equipment more intelligently.
