Thousands of machines and tools under our own brand, sold in seven European countries. You ensure they all comply, and ideally, even a little bit better.

With the new Machinery Regulation approaching, a significant task awaits. And you are the one who prepares HBM for it. This is a role with a lot of ownership. You independently determine what our products must comply with, you decide what is required for that, and you see the result of your work immediately: products that customers all over Europe can trust blindly.

And you go beyond the legal minimum. You help build internal HBM standards that set the bar higher than regulations require: manuals that are clear and on-brand, packaging that is consistent in language and appearance, and product requirements that keep our suppliers sharp. In this way, you turn compliance into a quality mark that distinguishes us from the competition.

You work daily with sourcing, quality, and commercial departments, ensuring compliance from the very first moment in the product development process. And because HBM is growing rapidly in Europe, with thousands of products under its own brand, your field of play grows with it every day.

You will help build the compliance function, therefore you are responsible for, among other things:

• You independently determine which EU laws and regulations a product must comply with and translate changes in regulation into concrete actions at an early stage.

• You compile and manage product files, including technical documentation and Declaration of Conformity (DoC).

• You coordinate sampling and testing programs at external laboratories and assess the documentation and test results from suppliers.

• You monitor that compliance requirements are included in quality controls, both in the factory and upon arrival, and prepare claims in the event of non-conformities.

• You contribute to internal HBM standards for manuals, packaging, and product requirements, in close cooperation with sourcing, quality, and commercial departments.

As a Product Compliance Specialist, you are used to taking initiative, in addition:

• You are accurate, structured, and enjoy personal responsibility.

What started as a tool shop in Gouda has grown into an international e-commerce organization for machines and tools, with customers throughout Europe. And we continue to grow. Behind the scenes, colleagues work every day on further developing HBM. From marketing and e-commerce to finance, HR, IT, and customer service: together we ensure that the organization keeps moving, improving, and growing.

Behind our world of machines and tools stands a modern organization in which technology and innovation play a major role. We work with smart software, data, automation, and AI to make our work better and more efficient. We test new possibilities and continuously look at how technology can further help us and our customers.

That mentality is also reflected in how we work together. At HBM, it is about taking initiative, collaborating, and continuous improvement. We combine the ambition and speed of a growing e-commerce organization with a down-to-earth approach. You are given the space to take ownership, contribute ideas, try new things, and further develop yourself.

Our cultural values show who we are: we grow, we demonstrate craftsmanship, and we make it fun. Because the best results arise when ambitious people work together on something they are proud of.
