About this vacancy

This position focuses on engineering electrical installations for service and refit activities on board superyachts. You will play a key role in preparing, improving and replacing systems so that technicians can carry out their work effectively.

You will execute engineering tasks for electrical installations, investigate and adjust existing systems on board and completely replace installations when required. You prepare projects technically and ensure that all documentation is ready for execution. Since many systems come from third party suppliers, you gather and interpret information regarding I O, serial data and connection details to resolve uncertainties and process everything correctly. You also contribute to the aftercare phase to ensure projects are completed to a high technical standard.

You will be working within one of the largest electrical system integrators in the Dutch superyacht industry. The service, refit and maintenance department operates in both the Netherlands and Spain and handles service work on in house systems as well as systems from external parties. The team works on complex and prestigious yachts, supporting clients throughout Europe.

  • Salary aligned with experience and responsibilities, following the technical installation collective agreement
  • A generous number of holidays including additional days depending on age and seniority
  • Strong travel and overtime allowances
  • Home working arrangement
  • Profit sharing scheme
  • Collective pension plan through the relevant industry fund
  • Financial benefits for fitness or bicycle purchases
  • Study support for children
  • Health and wellbeing activities offered throughout the year
  • Discounts on consumer products such as fashion, electronics, leisure and insurance
  • Access to extensive training and development programmes
  • High quality tools and digital equipment to perform your role effectively
  • A pleasant working environment with supportive colleagues
  • Higher professional education level with knowledge of maritime electrical engineering
  • Several years of relevant experience, preferably within shipbuilding
  • Strong collaboration skills supported by clear and commercially oriented communication
  • A goal driven team player with strong analytical awareness and the ability to maintain overview
  • Good command of both Dutch and English
