Your role
As a Non-Ferro specialist, you ensure that various metals on our site are safely and efficiently unloaded, moved, and sorted. This is usually done using a forklift, and you work together with your colleagues to ensure that the process runs smoothly.
But your role goes beyond just operating the forklift. You will become increasingly proficient in non-ferrous metals, such as copper, aluminum, and stainless steel. You will learn how to recognize, assess, and sort different metals in the correct manner.
We will train you internally at HKS to become a Non-Ferro Specialist.

- Materials are weighed, sorted and checked;
- Helping customers with loading and unloading;
- Increasingly more types of metal are being learned to recognize and evaluate;
- Together with your colleagues, ensure a safe and well-organized work site;

We offer

- A competitive salary and excellent benefits including company fitness and bicycle plan.
- 27 vacation days + 13 ATV days based on 40 hours per week.
- Lots of room for personal development.
Your profile
- You have experience operating a forklift;
- Experience in the metal or recycling industry is a bonus, but not a requirement;
