At Royal Lactalis Leerdammer, we love being good at something, but we find it even more fun to look at how it can become increasingly efficient, safer, higher quality, or more sustainable.

You do this by showing what you can do and by making your wishes known.

You are also involved in maintenance or changeover activities and work closely with your fellow operators for the planning and execution of primary maintenance. You discuss this with the shift leader. You work in the Packing department in Wageningen in a 4-shift rotation. On this department, our Leerdammer cheeses are inspected, sliced into slices or wedges, packaged according to customer wishes, and prepared for transport. Together with your colleagues, you ensure that everything is operational again quickly.

• On maintenance days, you work on your own line and resolve preventive actions.

• You support the shift to which you are assigned and support your fellow maintenance technicians where possible.

• In collaboration with various AM (autonomous management) teams, your expertise ensures successful progress of the work processes.

• You carry out small projects and actions and handle the administration of your own jobs in SAP PM with a clear description and time accounting.

• You perform inspection rounds and supervise external technicians.

You report to the Maintenance Manager Packing.

It is of great importance to us that you work in a positive and safe working atmosphere, to which you also contribute.

Week 1: 2x morning shift (from 06:00 to 14:00) and 2x afternoon shift (from 14:00 to 22:00)
Week 2: 3x night shift (from 22:00 to 06:00) and 2x morning shift (from 06:00 to 14:00)
