The role

DO YOU GET ENERGIZED BY ACTION AND TAKING CHARGE?
Do you like to be ready when it counts? Do you love variety, teamwork, and tasks where safety is central?
Then the position of Incident Responder at Wilchem might be a perfect fit for you.

Whether you have experience in the fire department, defense, emergency services, or come from a completely different industry: if you possess a driver's license C, are physically fit, and are eager to learn, then we would love to meet you.

In incidents, every minute counts. That is why Wilchem stands ready to take action 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Together with experienced colleagues, you will learn everything about emergency response, hazardous substances, traffic measures, and incident management.

At Wilchem, we believe you can learn this profession. That is why we invest heavily in your development. You will be guided by experienced colleagues and follow the training and certifications necessary to grow into a specialist in emergency and incident response.

Do you have a C driver's license, do you love to roll up your sleeves, and are you willing to work in a 24/7 schedule? Then we will train you to become a specialist.

What we find important

  • 28 vacation days based on full-time;
