As our Team lead Electronics Assembly you will manage a dedicated technical team of 4 people while staying hands-on with daily production.

  • Planning & Scheduling: Assign tasks and organize work schedules. Handle timesheet approvals and manage leave requests to keep the workflow smooth.

  • Coach & Support: Help your team members grow their skills and offer practical support when bottlenecks happen.

  • Process Improvement: Make sure the team follows quality and safety standards. Spot bottlenecks, suggest better ways of working, and keep daily operations efficient.

What you bring
  • MBO4 (or work experience equivalent) in Electronics, Mechatronics, or a related high-tech technical field.

  • 3+ years of experience in high-tech manufacturing, assembly, or engineering environments.

  • Proven experience leading, coaching, or managing a technical sub-team of 2 to 8 direct reports.

  • Strong hands-on experience with electronics and assembly.

  • Excellent communication skills with a natural ability to deliver constructive feedback and motivate colleagues.

  • A proactive, down-to-earth mindset. You are a great communicator who knows how to motivate people.

  • Fluent English, both spoken and written.

N.B. Don't worry if you don't tick every box. Our mission is a journey, and there's plenty to learn along the way. If most of this fits, we'd love to hear from you.

Please note: a Certificate of Conduct (VOG) and a background check are part of our screening process. We appreciate your understanding.

  • Working for a Great Place to Work® certified company;

  • Comprehensive pension plan;
