Workshop manager

Function

• As Workshop Manager, you take day-to-day charge of the workshop in Sint-Truiden and ensure that people, materials and planning are well aligned.
• You divide the work, monitor progress and intervene in a timely manner when priorities change or deadlines come under pressure.
• The quality, safety and orderliness of the workshop are partly your responsibility. You make agreements concrete and follow up to ensure they are applied consistently.
• Through technical insight and a practical outlook, you support colleagues with questions, problems and unexpected situations. You find solutions that work in day-to-day practice.
