Mechanical Fitter

Think big. Build big. In our production hall in Schiedam, we build the world's largest and heaviest cranes and the latest offshore wind equipment. How about a crane that is more than 150 metres high? That is almost as high as the Euromast. Are you the skilled craftsman or woman who wants a job where no two days are the same?

Great! Because we are looking for a Mechanical Fitter!

We design, build and maintain the world's largest and heaviest equipment. We belong to the best in the world. Just like our customers. They are global players in the offshore wind, geothermal, oil & gas, leisure and civil sectors. What else makes working at Huisman so special? Much of what we do has never been built before. That makes it special!

“In times of transition, we are at our best.”
