Mechanical Maintenance Technician

As a Mechanical Maintenance Technician, you will work in a unique environment. In our hospital, there are many special spaces such as operating rooms and rooms with adjusted air pressure. Working in healthcare also means you will be working on installations and systems that are found almost nowhere else. Is there a malfunction in the building management system? You analyze the problem and coordinate the solution so that everything works again. No more steam to disinfect the instruments for the surgeons? You search for the fault and ensure it works again in no time by engaging and directing the right specialists.

It is impressive to see how many (medical) gases and liquids flow through kilometers of piping. Is there a malfunction? You locate the defect and coordinate the solution so that care is not jeopardized. Additionally, you have important tasks in, for example, legionella control; you ensure that the pipes and the water are tested regularly.

You ensure that patients, visitors, students, and the nearly 13,000 employees can use our hospital without worry.
