Pay & benefits
What you'll get
You will join a professional laboratory environment with expert and dedicated colleagues. You will be given the space to learn new tasks and techniques and to further develop yourself.
In addition, we offer:
- a market-conform salary matching your knowledge and experience;
- an attractive shift allowance for working in the 3-shift rotation;
- a full-time position of 39 hours per week;
- at least 25 vacation days;
- travel allowance, whereby travel by public transport is 100% reimbursed via an NS-Business Card;
- the possibility to save extra hours worked as time-for-time;
- free access to GoodHabitz with a wide range of training and courses;

The role
Do you want to combine practical laboratory work with independence and responsibility? For our Physical Laboratory in Amersfoort, we are looking for a Physical Laboratory Technician for the 3-shift rotation.
What you'll do
You will work with environmental samples, perform various physical analyses, and ensure that samples are processed carefully and according to our quality guidelines. During the night shift, you have an extra independent role: you monitor the automated processes and perform urgent analyses that arrive during the night.
As a Physical Laboratory Technician, you will be involved in the pretreatment and analysis of various environmental samples. Your duties include:
- Pretreating samples, such as digestion, rinsing, drying, grinding, and sieving;
- Performing physical determinations, including clay, organic matter, and particle size determinations;
- Working with various laboratory equipment and techniques according to fixed work instructions;
- Assessing work based on protocols and regulations;
- Identifying deviations and malfunctions and taking action where necessary;
- Contributing to a safe, clean, and efficient working environment.
In the night shift, you work more independently and are responsible for the continuity of the laboratory process. You monitor the automated processes, identify and resolve deviations where possible, and independently perform urgent analyses that arrive during the night.
In doing so, you ensure that urgent samples are processed in a timely manner and according to the applicable quality guidelines, and that the other processes continue to run smoothly.
How you'll work
You will work according to the following shift schedule:
- Morning shift: 07:00 to 15:30
- Afternoon shift: 15:00 to 23:30
- Night shift: 23:00 to 07:30
During the night shift
You work accurately, take responsibility, and enjoy working both independently and together with colleagues. Even when working a night shift independently, you know how to set priorities and maintain an overview.
Hiring process
Do you want to contribute to reliable environmental analyses and are you looking for a position in which laboratory work, technology, and independence come together? Then we would like to meet you.
