Do you ensure that our high‑tech warehouses keep always running?

At our modern logistics campus in Venlo, you are responsible for the technical operations of one of our most advanced warehouses. You know the building and all its systems inside out: from HVAC installations and elevators to fire detection systems and automated processes. You help keep everything running smoothly:you’re on it.

How you do this? As the technical point of contact, you are a key link between operations and the facility organisation. You carry out maintenance, safeguard safety, coordinate suppliers and actively contribute ideas for improvements that make our location even more efficient. You achieve this by:

• translating technical needs from operations into concrete solutions.

Your team within DSV stands out for its collegial atmosphere. You work with fourteen facility colleagues who always support one another. You also collaborate closely with security, QHSE, procurement and, of course, your operational colleagues. DSV is growing rapidly, and that demands a lot from the team. We tackle the workload together, because at DSV, together really means together.
