New Construction Elevator Supervisor

From the first site visit to delivery, there lies your result: You ensure that people, planning, and execution come together at the right time.

As a New Construction Elevator Supervisor, you will guide approximately 75 projects per year in the Apeldoorn - Deventer region. On average, you are on-site 4 days per week and spend 1 day on preparation, planning, and internal coordination.

You are therefore close to the execution, communicating extensively with contractors and technicians, and seeing the direct result of your work.

• You are the fixed point of contact for your projects and monitor progress, planning, quality, safety, and costs. In doing so, you look ahead: what is needed to keep the project on schedule, where are the risks, and what actions need to be initiated now?
• You visit your projects multiple times during the construction process. You check whether the structural situation aligns with what is required for the installation of the elevator and maintain contact with contractors, site managers, and other involved parties.
• At the same time, you ensure that colleagues within KONE know exactly what is happening. You coordinate, among others, with Planning, Engineering, Sales, and Backoffice, and ensure that actions are followed up.
• You work closely with our independently working installation technicians. You ensure that they can perform their work safely and correctly and that the site conditions are correct.
• Additionally, you perform safety inspections and quality audits and provide support where necessary regarding questions or challenges on-site.

You do not need to have the answer to everything yourself. Precisely as a Supervisor, you know whom to involve, when to coordinate, and how to ensure a project moves forward. That combination gives you a lot of freedom, variety, and ownership.

No two days and no two projects are the same. One morning you might walk through a construction site with a site manager to assess whether everything is ready for installation. Later that day, you might discuss progress with a technician or solve a bottleneck together with colleagues.

• We are looking for someone who enjoys taking responsibility and finds pleasure in organizing multiple projects simultaneously.
• You have a higher professional education (HBO) level of working and thinking and/or relevant work experience.
• You can easily switch between different people and interests and know how to maintain an overview at the same time.
• Technical affinity helps, but you do not need to be an elevator specialist yet. The specific knowledge about our elevators, processes, and systems will be learned within KONE.
• You live in the Apeldoorn - Deventer region (within a 30KM radius).

More importantly, you are decisive, accessible, and solution-oriented. You approach people when necessary, but also know how to create collaboration.

What do you get from us?

• A salary between €4000 and €5700 gross (depending on knowledge and experience) and a bonus scheme;
• A future with the market leader in the Netherlands and an international player in the field of moving people in buildings and cities;
• Plenty of room for your own input, personal growth, and development: a 'Great Place To Work';
• Generous leave: 41 days (27 vacation days, 13 ADV/reduced working hours days, 1 sustainable employability day);
• Company car, phone, and laptop;
• 'Lease a Bike': Whether you have your eye on a speed pedelec, electric cargo bike, e-bike, or racing bike: it's all possible!
• Half of your pension is paid by us;
• Training and education via 'De KONE Academy' and career opportunities within an international player;
• Discounts on subscriptions (fitness), tickets for amusement parks, etc.;
• Working from home with all necessary facilities or at our office locations with good facilities and parking spaces;
• A lot of autonomy, freedom, and responsibility at one of the most innovative companies according to Forbes.

Do you recognize yourself in a large part of this profile, but not in everything? Then please do apply. We look not only at your current experience, but also at what you can learn and contribute.

You work on dozens of projects that you actually see being created. You walk onto a construction site where work is still in full swing and later see a fully installed elevator that is delivered safely and according to agreement. There lies your result: You have ensured that people, planning, and execution came together at the right time.

Ready for your next project? Would you like to be outside a lot, carry responsibility for your own projects, and work in a position where technology, construction, and people come together? Then we would love to meet you!
