Operator | Food | Maastricht | 3 shifts | Permanent contract

As an Operator you're the one who keeps our machines running! You make sure everything runs smoothly, keep a close eye on quality and help make tasty snacks. No two days are the same, and with your eye for detail and technical knack you make the difference. You:

• Prepare mixes and ingredients according to the recipe;
• Operate and adjust machines;
• Carry out quality checks and monitor the production process;
• Fix minor faults independently (if needed with help from the Technical Service);
• Keep a clean, safe workplace (5S, HACCP);
• Record production data accurately;
• Work closely with colleagues to achieve production targets.

You work in a 3-shift system. This means working Monday to Friday and enjoying the weekends off. You work one shift per week (early shift 06:00-14:00, afternoon shift 14:00-22:00, night shift 22:00-06:00).

To give everyone an equal chance for this great and challenging role, we first schedule a phone introduction. After that you'll take an assessment made up of a number of interactive games. You can easily complete this assessment on a tablet or laptop. That way we get a clear view together of whether you have the right skills for the job.

Safety is number one at Van Geloven. It's important that you and your colleagues make sure the whole working environment is safe. You also speak to your colleagues about this. Here's what we expect from you:

• You have experience in a production environment, preferably in the food industry;
• You're technically minded and eager to learn;
• You're precise, hygienic and quality-focused;
• You enjoy working a 3-shift rotation;
• You're proactive, positive and a true team player.

As an operator we naturally expect quite a lot from you. In return we have a great offer. Think of a direct contract at Mora in Maastricht, and the following terms and benefits:

• A gross monthly salary from €3039 to €3307, including 19% shift allowance;
• A varied and independent role within a financially healthy, growing organisation where you can develop through training and courses;
• Interesting secondary benefits such as;
  • 25 holiday days for a full-time contract;
  • The option to buy or sell holiday days;
  • Good pension scheme;
  • Travel allowance in accordance with the collective labour agreement (CAO);
  • Bike plan;
  • Discount on our products in our staff shop;
  • Contribution towards your gym membership.
