Vacancy
Acquisition based on this advertisement is not appreciated. We usually fill the vacancies ourselves and in exceptional cases we work with preferred suppliers.
As a Service & Support Engineer E/PLC at EuroSort, you are responsible for solving and coordinating E and PLC disruptions within the sorting systems. This means that you man the hotline with colleagues daily, maintaining direct phone contact with customers. You provide remote support and, if necessary, you are also on-site to fix disruptions. In addition, you assist customers with modifications, expansions, and refurbishments. This can be both in the Netherlands and within the EU.
Besides solving disruptions, you are also responsible for performing upgrades, updates, modifications, and patches. You actively approach customers, for example when software updates need to be scheduled. You understand the importance of distinguishing between high and low priority calls and act accordingly. During quieter periods without urgent disruptions, you occupy yourself with other tasks such as preparing new projects and installing software. You also ensure correct administrative handling of calls and disruptions in the SDB system, including customer and contact details, configuration, and status of the disruption.
After an extensive internal training, you become part of the Service & Support Helpdesk team. Together with colleagues, both SW/PC Engineers and E/PLC Engineers, you continuously work on optimizing the Service & Support department. You strive together to achieve the best possible customer satisfaction, with the ultimate goal of making every customer a satisfied reference customer.
If you enjoy solving technical problems, providing service-oriented work, and find it challenging to work independently and maintain an overview when various tasks are simultaneously coming your way, then this is a job for you.
Working week
On an enjoyable day, you have quickly and adequately solved complex disruptions together with colleagues, so customers are fully operational again. There is also enough time for evaluation and a cup of coffee.
On a less enjoyable day, you sometimes stand alone and struggle with complex disruptions and demanding customers. It is then essential to stay calm and prioritize tasks according to urgency.
