Truck-mounted crane operator

We understand that, as a driver, you want to drive a clean, modern, and well-maintained truck. You also don’t have to worry about your hours—we’ll make sure you’re properly compensated for them. Will you join our team and soon be driving one of our beautiful blue trucks as a truck-mounted crane operator?

What are you going to do?

As a truck-mounted crane operator at the Theo Pouw Group, you will transport raw materials for civil engineering, road construction, water management, and concrete construction to customers or construction sites. You are the face of the Theo Pouw Group and will have frequent contact with customers and colleagues while performing your duties.

You can do this by:

• Transporting materials (such as sand and big bags) to and from our customers;
• Loading and unloading raw materials using a crane;
• Be responsible for the daily maintenance and repair of minor malfunctions of the truck-mounted crane;
• Keep the vehicle clean.

Our workdays usually start between 5:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. In most cases, you’ll be back in Utrecht by late afternoon and home by evening. We ask our drivers to work occasionally in the evenings, at night, and on weekends. In the winter, you may be assigned to de-icing duties (snow plowing).

What are we asking?

You strive to deliver goods to our customers on time. Changes to the schedule are sometimes unavoidable, but thanks to your flexible approach, this is no problem for you and you remain calm. You also bring:

• Driver's license C supplemented with valid code 95;
• At least 2 years of experience as a driver;
• Good command of the Dutch language;
• Basic Safety Certificate (VCA) or willing to obtain it;
• Residing in the Utrecht region.

What do we offer?

A contract for 40 hours per week for 7 months with the prospect of permanent employment. We participate in the collective labor agreement for professional goods transport. This means you can also count on:

• No-claims bonus scheme of up to €75.00 per month;
• Travel allowance of €0.23 per kilometer, from 10 kilometers one way with a maximum of 50 kilometers per day;
• Code 95 refresher training (reimbursement for training hours and courses);
• Work phone;
• Pension scheme with the Transport Pension Fund of 30% per year with a personal contribution of 10.16%.
• Minimum of 27.5 vacation days based on full-time employment;
• Good company restaurant where your order is freshly prepared at a good price.

We do not appreciate unsolicited applications in response to this vacancy.

Who are we?

Our fleet in Utrecht consists of 70 well-maintained, modern trucks (Volvo, Scania, MAN, and Mercedes), including trailers, tippers, and concrete mixers. To guarantee the quality and availability of our equipment, we have our own workshop, which allows us to carry out maintenance efficiently. Our drivers are responsible for additional technical checks and daily maintenance of the trucks. If you would like to be part of our transport team, you are very welcome at the Theo Pouw Group!
