You will report to the Production Manager and work as part of a team of competent and engaged colleagues who will help you integrate into the work and the team in the best possible way.

The role also includes:

You need to be structured and enjoy working according to clear processes. We also believe you enjoy working towards deadlines to ensure trains are released on time. You are good at organizing and planning your work well.

We also believe you are analytical and enjoy performing technical troubleshooting and finding solutions to problems. Furthermore, it is important that you are meticulous and have a high sense of responsibility, as the work of a train technician has a direct impact on the safety and health of all passengers. Good communication and teamwork skills are also important as you work together with other technicians and other staff at our depot.
