Process Operator Rockwool

Wat je gaat doen

As a Process Operator at ROCKWOOL, you will operate and monitor the machines used to manufacture high-quality stone wool insulation products and building panels.

Together with your colleagues, you will make sure the production process runs safely, efficiently and according to the required quality standards. You will work in a 3-, 4- or 5-shift schedule, depending on the department and production process.

Your responsibilities include:

• operating, setting up and adjusting production machinery;
• monitoring the production process and adjusting machine settings when needed;
• identifying and resolving process deviations and technical issues;
• carrying out quality checks and measurements;
• recording relevant production and quality information;
• helping your team achieve daily production targets;
• keeping your workplace safe, clean and organised;
• suggesting improvements to increase safety, quality and efficiency.

This position offers more than routine machine operation. You will take responsibility for the production process and help prevent downtime, quality issues and unsafe situations.

Wat we je bieden

At ROCKWOOL, you will work in a technical production environment with competitive employment conditions and long-term career opportunities.

You can expect:

• a gross monthly salary between €3,178 and €3,839, depending on your experience and qualifications;
• a shift allowance between 21.5% and 28.5% on top of your base salary;
• a 13th-month payment;
• 8% holiday allowance;
• at least 25 vacation days;
• a position for 32 to 40 hours per week;
• free parking at the ROCKWOOL location in Roermond;
• a well-organised onboarding and training programme;
• internal training and development opportunities;
• opportunities to grow within production and process technology;
• an international workplace with colleagues from different backgrounds;
• the prospect of long-term employment with ROCKWOOL.

At Start People, we operate on the principle of equal pay; your terms and conditions of employment always match those of colleagues employed directly by the client. This means that, in addition to your hourly rate, your terms and conditions of employment also include, for example, the number of days off, allowances, time-off-in-lieu payments and other pay components.

Functie-eisen

You enjoy working with machines, understand technical processes and take safety and quality seriously.

We are looking for someone who has:

• completed a technical vocational education, preferably in Process Technology, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics or a related field;
• experience in machine operation, industrial production or process technology;
• good technical understanding of machines and production processes;
• the ability to identify and resolve technical or process-related issues;
• an accurate, independent and safety-conscious approach to work;
• willingness to work in a 3-, 4- or 5-shift schedule;
• good teamwork and communication skills;
• sufficient communication skills in English, Dutch or German.

You do not need to speak all three languages. If you can communicate safely and effectively in at least one of them, we would like to hear from you.

Do you have relevant production experience but not the exact education listed above? We still encourage you to apply. Your technical skills, experience and willingness to learn may be just as valuable.
