New Machine Assembly

You help build and assemble new machines and installations. You make sure that all components are correctly installed, tested and adjusted before the machine is delivered to the customer.

Service

You support customers with maintenance, repairs and troubleshooting on site. This may be in the Netherlands or internationally. You help customers keep their production running and act as an important technical point of contact.

What Our Team Says

Meet the people behind our performance

Our employees share their experiences and insights about being part of Stork IMM.

"I started at Stork IMM in the field service department as a Service Technician. Over the years, I transitioned to the internal service team, and my role evolved from Service Technician to Troubleshooter. In this position, I’m responsible for handling all customer inquiries related to machine malfunctions. Lately, I’ve also been involved in some sales activities. Sales has always appealed to me, and Stork IMM is giving me the opportunity to explore this further.

Working at Stork IMM is truly amazing. You can start out as a technician and grow into roles like Area Sales Manager. Anything is possible as long as you’re ambitious, proactive, and show what you’re capable of. On top of that, the product is truly impressive. Both Stork IMM and its machines are constantly evolving. It never stands still, and that’s exactly why I still enjoy working here after all these years."

- Huseyin Koltuk, International Service & Sales

"When a colleague from Stork IMM reached out to me via LinkedIn, I decided to go for an interview – and it turned out to be a perfect match. I was immediately drawn to the open and friendly atmosphere, and that still holds true today. There’s a culture of being direct and honest with each other, working hard, but always making room for a good laugh.

What makes my job so enjoyable and challenging is the dynamic nature of it. Every day is different because of the interaction with both technicians and customers. I’m committed to helping our technicians maintain a healthy work-life balance. Sometimes they have to travel to far-off places like Africa for assignments and are away from home for two or three weeks. We always plan these trips in consultation, so that everyone feels comfortable with the arrangements. It gives me great satisfaction to organize this properly for them."

- Janine, Planner Serviceteam

"I started at Stork IMM as a Goods Management employee, mainly focused on quality control. With a desire to keep growing, I enrolled in a Transport and Logistics Specialist course through a POP discussion, which was a valuable step for both me and the company. I now act asa stand-in for the supervisor during his absence and hope to grow further in this role.

I enjoy variety and challenges and appreciate the freedom to work independently. What makes Stork IMM special is its family-oriented atmosphere. My son even got a chance to work here during his gap year, which helped launch his career. The company’s flexibility and local Twente culture create a great balance between work and life and a friendly work environment."

- Dennis Verschoor, Goods Management Specialist
