Technical Documentalist

We offer you an Ocean of Possibilities. Join our family.

At Damen Cargo Vessels, part of the international family business Damen Shipyards, we design and build smart, sustainable cargo vessels for customers all over the world.

From our teams in Gorinchem and Drachten, we work on Combi Freighters, Tankers, and Container Feeders that are built at our shipyards in China and Vietnam.

We combine craftsmanship with series production and develop standardized ship designs that align with current and future market needs. In doing so, we focus on a strong balance between quality, price, and delivery time, with great attention to sustainability, innovation, and efficiency.

Do you like working accurately, maintaining an overview, and do you want to contribute to ships that are deployed worldwide? Then at Damen Cargo Vessels, you will get the space to help build our projects and your own development.

As a Technical Documentalist, you ensure that all internal and external documentation for the delivery of our ships is complete, correct, and available on time. Think of digital certificates, manuals, and standard documentation. You work closely with colleagues from Supply Chain, Project Management, and the shipyards, so that everyone has the right information at the right time.

• You compile digital certificate and manual packages in a timely manner for the delivery of ships.
• You check whether documentation is complete and correct before it is handed over.
• You maintain contact with suppliers regarding the availability and quality of documentation.
• You identify discrepancies, such as expired validity or missing documents, and take proactive action.
• You keep standard documentation up to date and contribute to a smooth documentation process.

• You have at least an MBO level of working and thinking and speak good English and Dutch.
• You have up to 5 years of relevant work experience; we also cordially invite starters to apply.
• You work accurately, practically, and goal-oriented, and you dare to take initiative and responsibility.
• You communicate openly and clearly and work well in a multidisciplinary team.
• You feel at home in a dynamic environment in which you maintain an overview and can set priorities.
• You are proficient with MS Office and enjoy working with digital systems.
• Experience with SAP, an ERP system, or documentation and procurement processes is a plus.

You will join a growing, international organization where innovation, collaboration, and entrepreneurship are central.

We offer you:

• A position of 32 to 40 hours per week, based in Gorinchem or in Drachten.
• Personal guidance, freedom, and varied work in an environment where your opinion counts.
• Plenty of opportunities to further develop yourself through education and training.
• A dynamic international working environment with a lot of attention to technology and innovation.
• An open, informal no-nonsense culture with short lines of communication.
• An active social environment with attention to company culture, events, and sports.
• A gross monthly salary between € 3,500 and € 4,500 based on full-time employment, excluding holiday allowance. Your exact salary will be determined based on your knowledge and experience. The Metalektro collective labor agreement (CAO) applies to this position.
• Excellent employment conditions, including 27 vacation days and 13 ADV days, holiday allowance, a travel allowance of € 0.25 per kilometer, a good pension scheme, and the flexibility to work partly from home.
