Job Description

Take your technical skills offshore. Work on board of ships!

Do you enjoy working with your hands, solving mechanical problems and being close to the water? Would you love to work on board of ships instead of spending every day in the same workshop?

For an international specialist in marine and offshore technology, we are looking for a Marine Field Service Engineer with a strong mechanical background.

You will work on board of ships, installing, maintaining and repairing specialised mechanical and hydraulic equipment. From the workshop in Rotterdam to shipyards, ports and vessels across Europe, you will be involved in interesting marine projects.

You don't necessarily need years of maritime experience, but a background in marine engineering, shipbuilding, mechanical engineering or heavy equipment would be highly relevant.

What will you do?

  • Carry out mechanical maintenance, repairs and installations on board of ships.

  • Work on hydraulic systems, pumps, motors, cylinders and mechanical components.

  • Troubleshoot mechanical and hydraulic failures.

  • Install, test and commission specialised marine equipment.

  • Perform inspections and preventive maintenance.

  • Work at shipyards, ports and customer locations.

  • Travel internationally for approximately 30% of your working time.

  • Work independently while coordinating with colleagues and customers.

What are we looking for?

  • A technical background in Mechanical Engineering, Marine Engineering, Shipbuilding or similar.

  • Strong practical mechanical engineering skills.

  • Good knowledge of hydraulic systems is essential.

  • Experience with pumps, motors, cylinders, valves and mechanical installations.

  • Experience in the maritime, offshore, shipping or heavy equipment industry is a big advantage.

  • A hands-on mentality and willingness to work on board of ships.

  • Ability to work independently and solve technical problems.

  • Good command of English.

  • Willingness to travel internationally (approximately 30%).

What do we offer?

  • Salary up to €4,200 gross per month, depending on experience.

  • Direct employment with the client.

  • Long-term career opportunity.

  • International marine and offshore projects.

  • A combination of workshop work and working on board of ships.

  • All business-related travel expenses covered.

  • Technical development and training opportunities.

  • A friendly, informal and down-to-earth working environment.
