Job description
PULL FORWARD. FULL FORCE.
Do you want to determine your own working days in a 5-on-4-off work schedule? Do you want a wide variety in your workload? Do you want to work throughout the Netherlands and Germany, or closer to home? Do you want to work with a wide variety of equipment? Within an organization that is constantly evolving and provides you with a lot of freedom and space for personal development? Then apply at Rail Force One as a National/International Train Operator VB.
Your Workday:
As a freight train operator at Rail Force One, no day is the same for you. Trains run, shunting, performing technical checks; you do it all independently, throughout the Netherlands, and even into Germany.
In Bad Bentheim, you take over a loaded car train from a colleague. You check all documentation and then drive across the country to the final destination Rotterdam. This trip takes about 5 hours. The next day, you are active in the ports of Amsterdam, using a shunting locomotive to move along the terminals to pick up wagons and assemble a complete train for departure. Another day, you drive a fully loaded container train bound for Switzerland from the Maasvlakte in Rotterdam to Venlo. No day is the same! You are still impressed every day that you can and may operate such a behemoth and enjoy the view along the way. Curious about what awaits you tomorrow.
