Mechanical Technician

• You are an experienced technician and want to apply your craft in an environment where technology truly matters.
• You work with challenging mechanical installations and visit places that a technician wouldn't normally go to very often.
• You get a lot of freedom and responsibility: from planned maintenance to resolving an acute malfunction.

As a mechanical technician, you ensure that the technical installations in our hospital continue to function safely, reliably, and well. And that is important: your work helps ensure that healthcare providers can do their jobs and patients can count on good care.

You will be busy with maintenance, management, inspections, and repairs to various mechanical installations, such as:

• Steam, heating, and cooling installations;
• Water treatment and sewage;
• Medical gases;
• Air handling units;
• Ground energy (WKO);
• Technical automation.

No two days are the same. You work at all three of our locations: Utrecht, Nieuwegein, and Woerden. Because of this, you visit all sorts of places in the hospital and deal with various technical issues. You work together with colleagues, but also get the space to work independently.

A malfunction doesn't always wait until Monday. Therefore, you will work a periodic on-call shift, also during the weekend. Do you get a call? Then you get to work on a technical problem that must be solved immediately. Sometimes within your own field of expertise, sometimes it requires a creative solution outside the beaten path. It is precisely that variety and responsibility that make it interesting.

You will be working within Technical Management: a team of approximately 25 technical colleagues who ensure that the hospital literally keeps running.

From air handling and steam installations to medical gases, water treatment, and building management systems: together you ensure that healthcare staff can rely on a safe and reliable technical environment.

You work in an environment in which technology and healthcare are directly connected. A malfunction in an installation is not just any malfunction here. It can have an impact on care. That makes your work technically interesting and socially relevant.

• Salary up to a maximum of € 4,346.- gross per month (FWG scale 45 Cao Ziekenhuizen) based on a 36-hour work week, depending on your education and work experience.
• Annual contract for 32-36 hours per week, with a view to permanent employment
• A 13th month, an attractive pension scheme, and a time budget to use for a good work-life balance
• Tax benefits and discounts on, among other things, bicycles, sports, electronics, and cultural outings
• Training and development opportunities to deepen your (professional) knowledge
• Participation in (sporting) activities and workshops

You are a professional who loves solving problems and taking responsibility for the result. You work accurately, maintain an overview when the planning suddenly changes, and enjoy searching for a solution together with colleagues.

Because you have a lot of contact with colleagues from different parts of the hospital, good communication and social skills are important.

In addition, you have:

• An MBO diploma in mechanical engineering or installation technology (level 3 or 4);
• Knowledge of maintenance of installations and the associated rules and safety requirements;
• Knowledge and experience with reading and, if necessary, adjusting technical drawings.

At St. Antonius, you work on (highly) complex care with your heart in the right place. We are a top-clinical teaching hospital where patient care, education, and research go hand in hand. Thanks to our size, we make a real impact, but remain agile and personal.

Our clinical priorities are heart & vascular, lungs, and cancer. Additionally, we are one of the leaders in the Netherlands in the field of value-based care. This means that we do not only look at what is medically possible, but especially at what truly makes a difference for the individual patient. By structurally measuring the most important outcomes and learning together, also with the other Santeon hospitals, we make care a little bit better every day. With us, every employee, including you, makes a difference for the patient.

Then respond while the vacancy remains open. We are curious about your experience and talents.
