The role

description

Due to an increase in work, we will soon be able to deploy our new, complete Asphalt set. But merely placing this beautiful equipment on location is not enough to lay roads. We are therefore looking for new colleagues who want to man this set to help realize our new projects and works. Are you familiar with this type of equipment and work? Then apply directly!

  • Screed operator

  • Asphalt Paver Operator

Operating the asphalt paver, which you do together with the operator. You are responsible for the screed, which is located at the rear of the machine. You are the specialist and know how to set the screed and what to look out for when laying the asphalt. For example, think of the correct spreading and thickness of the asphalt layers.

Asphalt Paver Operator
Together with the screed operator, the asphalt paver operator is responsible for ensuring that the asphalt layer is laid according to plan. You prepare the machine for operation, drive and move the asphalt paver, and manage the working speed.

This adhesive ensures good bonding between asphalt layers. The driver operates the vehicle, operates the spraying installation, and ensures an even distribution. He works closely with the asphalt team and follows strict safety regulations. This work is essential for durable and stable roads.
