Werk en Vakmanschap

Werk en Vakmanschap is a Dutch recruitment and training company focusing on technical professions across industrial and engineering sectors. The company places job seekers in permanent and temporary roles, offers apprenticeship placements (BBL trajecten), and provides career development and upskilling pathways. Werk en Vakmanschap's mission is delivering a kickstart to employment by placing candidates at the centre of every placement decision and ensuring their talent counts.

The company specialises across diverse technical fields including process technology, metal technology and mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, installation technology, mechatronics, infrastructure engineering, construction, logistics, automation and IT, and also serves commercial, procurement and administrative roles. Werk en Vakmanschap offers 1,228 active vacancies and provides personal guidance to candidates throughout their career journey. The firm operates four core commitments: candidates always stand central, personal one-on-one support is provided throughout placements, talent is valued and respected, and the company lives and breathes technical expertise.

Werk en Vakmanschap publishes success stories showcasing career transitions - from executive chef to process operator, outdoor retail worker to site operator, and others demonstrating successful apprenticeships combined with employment placement. The company facilitates tell-a-friend referral schemes (with 1,500 euros available for successful referrals) and operates apprenticeship training programmes placing workers in roles where they learn while earning. Based in Roosendaal with registration number 2173/UC in the Flemish Region, the firm is recognised for placing candidates into meaningful, sustainable technical careers.
