Functieomschrijving
As a Production Operator, you will be active at the core of a high-tech glass manufacturing process. In this role, you are directly involved in transforming molten glass into finished bottles, ensuring quality, stability and efficiency throughout the process.
You will begin with a comprehensive onboarding and training program, giving you the opportunity to learn every phase of the glass production cycle. After completing this training period in day shift, you will move into a six-shift rotation, carefully structured to support a healthy balance between professional and private life.
This is not a standard production role. You won’t simply operate machines — you help create products built to last. With production planned to start in Q2 2026, this is your opportunity to take part in the launch of a completely new manufacturing site. Ready to become a true bottle-maker? Or, as we like to say: are you looking for job satisfaction — or real bottle happiness?

Your tasks include:
- Keeping production running smoothly by managing gob delivery systems, lehrs and conveyor equipment
- Adjusting process settings and monitoring temperatures to ensure stable production
- Preparing machines for product changeovers and replacing refractory components when required
- Cleaning installations and maintaining a safe and orderly work environment
- Detecting, reporting and escalating technical abnormalities or process deviations
