The role

What will you do as a High Speed Balancer?

What you'll do

As a Balancer, you ensure that turbines and compressors are perfectly balanced before they go back to the customer. You are involved in the entire process: from receipt and inspection to the actual balancing and preparing rotors for shipment. You work accurately, think along about the best approach, and see the direct result of your work.

  • You inspect and assess incoming turbines and compressors
  • You prepare work activities and think along about the tooling
  • You balance rotors at high speeds using an advanced balancing machine
  • You analyze measurement results and make adjustments where necessary

You work in a small team of specialists where technology is central. In doing so, you regularly coordinate with colleagues from, among others, project management, sales, and planning. Together, you ensure that customers can count on a reliable end product.

Who are you?

You find it rewarding when technology is correct. You work accurately, think ahead, and take responsibility for your work. Experience with balancing is not required; we are happy to teach you the trade. However, it is important that you have technical insight and enjoy working with technology.

What do we offer you?

At VDL Energy Systems, you step into a role that you won't find anywhere else in the Netherlands. You get the chance to learn a unique technology, become part of a close-knit team, and further develop yourself within a stable organization. We give you the space to grow, take responsibility, and become a specialist in your field. There are very few roles in which you can work with a machine that is unique in the Netherlands. That is exactly what makes this role special. You will be trained as a specialist, work with advanced technology, and receive a lot of responsibility in your work. A great opportunity for someone who wants to further develop technically and is looking for a role with a future
