Vacant job

Are you a handy problem solver who is passionate about creating satisfied customers through good service? Do you thrive in a role where you get to be out in the field, travel, and meet fitness-interested customers in various environments? Then you might be the one we are looking for as a Service Technician at Vartex, a leading player in the fitness industry. Here you will have a role with a lot of freedom, responsibility, and variety, where you will be based in Jönköping but have all of Sweden as your working field.

Vartex is a well-established and expanding company with over 50 years of experience in developing and selling products in sports and leisure. We have strong brands in our portfolio and a passion for making a difference for both end consumers and professional players in the industry. Together with WeSports Group, we are building the future of sports and training experiences in the Nordic region. Vartex has over 40 employees in Varberg, Malmö, Hästveda, and Jönköping who work with purchasing, marketing, sales, installation, service, and logistics.

WeSports Group is a dynamic and fast-growing Nordic group specializing in sports, training, and leisure. With over 40 strong specialist brands in the portfolio – in segments such as cycling, fitness, skiing, hockey, floorball, and outdoor – WeSports is a leading player in the market. The group has about 400 dedicated employees and a turnover of approximately 2.8 billion SEK.

As a traveling service technician at Vartex, you will work closely with our customers out in the field with a varied everyday life where you combine practical work with customer contact and service. You will be based in Jönköping and collaborate closely with our colleagues both locally and in Varberg.

In the role, you will among other things:

• Perform emergency and planned maintenance on training equipment, gym machines, and gym floors
• Carry out installations of gym equipment for private and corporate customers
• Install completely new gym facilities together with colleagues
• Identify and suggest complementary products or services at the customer’s site
• Contribute to high customer satisfaction through professional interaction and good service

You will be based at our office in Jönköping with regular working hours from 07:30 to 16:30 with the possibility of flexibility. Work takes place Monday to Friday, and you control your days in consultation with your colleagues. Overnight stays occur in the job and are compensated according to allowances. The role involves travel throughout Sweden, where you will receive support from both the team that plans the assignments and from our three service technicians in Varberg.

To be the one we are looking for, we believe you are a technically skilled and curious person with a high sense of service who is eager to contribute your knowledge and has a professional demeanor. You enjoy being on the road in your job, and you gain energy from satisfied customers and providing good service. If you have previously worked in a similar role as a traveling technician, this is an advantage but not a requirement.

Furthermore, we also believe that you have:

• A valid driver's license (B). BE/C/CE licenses are advantageous but not required
• Fluent in Swedish, both spoken and written, with knowledge of English
• An interest in gyms and training, with experience in this type of environment

Knowledge of electricity and electrical theory is an advantage but not a requirement. We believe you are an initiative-taking, service-oriented, and meticulous person with a positive and problem-solving attitude, who understands the importance of good collaborations and satisfied customers. You thrive in an independent role, are responsible, flexible, and thorough. With your positive and trustworthy demeanor, you create security for both customers and colleagues while being eager to contribute ideas and initiatives that strengthen and further develop the business. With supportive colleagues, we look forward to welcoming a driven colleague who wants to continue growing with us.

This is the perfect match for you if you want to combine technical work with service and customer contact, take responsibility for your assignments, and ensure that gyms and training facilities function perfectly, while also enjoying developing together with a competent and engaged team.
