Yes, the demand is great. Mechanics are desperately needed in almost every sector - from industry to logistics.
As mechanical mechanic you ensure that installations, machines and production lines keep running smoothly. Whether it's maintenance, repair or troubleshooting - you are the technical hub that every company relies on.
A mechanical mechanic deals with maintaining, repairing and installing mechanical parts, machines and systems. Think of production lines, drives, pumps and conveyors. You often work with colleagues from electrical engineering or maintenance, making sure everything keeps running safely and efficiently.
Main duties:
These are the qualities that make you excel in this role:
You start the day with a short consultation on the shop floor: what are the planned maintenance tasks, what breakdowns have occurred, and what has priority? Then you get to work on inspections, repairs or rebuilding machines. In between, you will be called out in case of a breakdown - so fast switching is important. You work with technical diagrams, measuring equipment and tools, and end the day with reporting in the maintenance system.
To become a Mechanical Mechanic, you usually take a technical MBO course. This often involves:
Additional courses, such as VCA, NEN 3140 or hydraulics/pneumatics, make you especially attractive to employers.
A Mechanical Mechanic earns on average between €2,400 and €3,800 gross per month, depending on experience, education and shift premiums. In industry or chemistry, this can go up to €4,200 gross including allowances.
A mbo diploma in mechanical engineering or mechatronics is required. With additional certificates, you can advance to positions such as Maintenance Mechanic or Technical Specialist.
Most positions are full-time (36-40 hours per week). Shifts may vary depending on the company's production times.
Mechanical fitters often work shifts or day shifts, depending on the industry. On breakdown shifts, you may need to be available at night or on weekends.

Often it does, especially if you work on-site at customers' sites or work breakdown shifts.
Sure. You can advance to positions such as Maintenance Engineer, Technical Service Team Leader or Service Engineer.
Not always. Some companies work day shifts, others with 2- or 3-shift systems. It depends on the industry and the type of production.
