Logistics employee data centre

As a logistics employee in the Eemshaven, you’ll ensure that everything runs smoothly in the data centre. You’ll be working in a modern data centre for a major American client.

In this role, you’ll be responsible for a range of tasks: you’ll be loading and unloading heavy goods, which can sometimes be quite a challenge. But don’t worry, you’ll be working alongside great colleagues who’ll lend a hand when needed. You will also check materials and move them to the correct location, where your eye for detail will come in handy. Furthermore, you will be responsible for assembling and partially installing various racks within the data centre and assisting with other logistics processes.

This is a long-term role (expected to last at least one year) and there is also the possibility of being taken on by the client on a permanent contract.
