Pay & benefits

What you'll get

At Vion, you receive the trust to apply your craftsmanship in a place where technology delivers directly visible results. You work with modern installations, get room to learn, and become part of a technical team that helps one another.

  • A position of 36 hours per week, usually from Monday to Friday.

  • A lot of responsibility in a production environment where your work has a direct impact.

  • Modern installations, professional tools, and good resources to do your job well.

  • A team in which you can count on each other and share knowledge.

  • Room to obtain training and certificates, for example in the field of safety, PLC technology, or maintenance.

  • A stable, international working environment with future prospects.

  • Clear agreements regarding on-call shifts and occasional work on Saturdays.

  • Salary and additional employment conditions that match your experience and the applicable agreements within Vion.

The role

At Vion, production runs on people who understand technology AND take responsibility. As a Maintenance Technician, you ensure that our machines, installations, and processes continue to perform reliably. In doing so, you help colleagues on the shop floor move forward and contribute directly to safe, efficient food production.

You work close to the operation. You see immediately what your solution does: a breakdown that disappears, a line that runs again, an improvement that makes the work safer or smarter.

Making an impact together with confidence. That is working at Vion.

What you'll do

As a Maintenance Technician, you work on modern industrial installations in a production environment where continuity, safety, and quality are important. You combine craftsmanship with practical insight and think along about improvements that truly work.

  • You perform preventive and corrective maintenance on machines, installations, and technical systems.

  • You locate breakdowns and resolve them quickly, safely, and thoughtfully.

  • You commission installations and support technical adjustments and improvement projects.

  • You read, monitor, and assess PLC systems and adjust where necessary.

  • You check and optimize equipment so that processes continue to run reliably.

  • You identify recurring breakdowns and think along about structural solutions.

  • You work closely with colleagues from production, the Technical Service, and external specialists.

  • You ensure that activities are carried out safely, tidily, and according to the correct procedures.

What do you bring?

You are a technician who enjoys practical work, remains calm during breakdowns, and takes responsibility for good work. You look beyond today's breakdown and think along about how it can be better tomorrow.
